Pat Summitt's and John Wooden's timeless teachings come alive in Lessons from the Legends through real-life stories from remarkable present-day leaders from sports, business, and entertainment — including Oprah Winfrey, LeBron James, Warren Buffett, Peyton Manning, Michael Phelps, Bill and Melinda Gates, Michelle Obama, and Coach Mike Krzyzewski.

Brian Biro shows how the foundational principles and coaching strategies of two of history's greatest coaches can be applied by anyone — teachers, business leaders, parents, and all who strive to make their character their reputation.

  • Simple human dignity and genuine humility
  • Focus on character over reputation
  • Purpose-centered thinking and putting the team first
  • Building loyalty and leading with absolute integrity
  • Disagreeing without being disagreeable
  • "WE-GO not ego" — the foundation of true team excellence

With real-life examples of leaders demonstrating resilience and determination in the face of ever-changing challenges, Lessons from the Legends provides a winning game plan for those who seek excellence over ego.
