  • "In sports teams, as in business, you need to pay attention to the little details." says Scotty Bowman, NHL Hall of Fame Coach of the Detroit Red Wings. The Business of Winning - A Manager's Guide to Building a Championship Team by Robert Evangelista is loaded with guidelines for everything from building the business game plan to celebrating the business victory.

    An interesting and easy read, this book can help managers draft and put a staff coaching plan into use Evangelista presents a four-part formula for winning at corporate leadership, following the same guidelines that winning coaches use to lead their teams to victory.

    The Business of Winning features lessons from Basketball coaches Pat Riley, Dean Smith and John Wooden; Football coaches Lou Holtz and Vince Lombardi; NHL Coach Scotty Bowman, and Soccer coach Anson Dorrance.

    The author calls on his experience both as coach of a mediocre inner city hockey team that he turned into a successful contenter, and the insights he then brought to his job as a manufacturing manager for General Motors. Evangelista has developed a down-to-earth book for every manager that has ever struggled to meet business goals.
