I found a great book while shopping with my family in Branson, MO over the weekend; it's called "The Carolina Way." Being from North Carolina the title immediately caught my eye! What a fantastic read. The great college basketball coach Dean Smith and business leadership guru Gerald Bell team up to write an awesome book on "leadership lessons from a life in coaching."
The Carolina Way explains Coach Smith's philosophy and gives advice for leaders on how to apply these leadership principles to build an effective team. After reading just a couple of chapters, it is clear to see why the "Tarheels" were such a threat under the leadership of Coach Dean Smith. His mission statement? Play Hard, Play Together, Play Smart. Pretty intimidating to say the least.
Be sure to check back as I will post more about "The Carolina Way."
