Krátky popis
The secret to winning is not what you think it is. It's not the
coach. It's not the star.It's not money. It's not a strategy. It's
something else entirely.The founding editor of The Wall Street
Journal's sports section profiles the greatest teams in history and
identifies the counterintuitive leadership qualities of the
unconventional men and women who drove them to succeed. Fuelled by
a lifetime of sports spectating, twenty years of reporting, and a
decade of painstaking research, The Captain Class is not just a
book on sports, it is the key to how successful teams are built and
how transformative leadership is born. Several years ago, Sam
Walker set out to answer the most hotly debated sports question:
what are the greatest teams of all time? He devised a formula,
applied it to thousands of teams and listed the 16 most dominant
teams ever across all sports, from the English Premiere League to
the NFL.But what did these freak teams have in common? As Walker
dug deeper, a pattern emerged: all teams were driven by a singular
type of leader, a captain, but not one you might expect. They were
unorthodox outliers - awkward and disagreeable, marginally skilled,
poor communicators, rule breaking and rather than pursuing fame,
hid in the shadows. Captains, in short, who challenge your
assumption of what inspired leadership looks like.Covering world
renowned teams like Barcelona, Brazil, the All Blacks and the New
York Yankees to lesser known successes of Soviet ice hockey or
French handball, The Captain Class unveils the seven key qualities
that make an exceptional leader. Drawing on original interviews
with athletes, coaches and managers from two dozen countries,
Walker questions if great captains are made or born, why teams pick
the wrong captain and how the value of the captain can be revived.
