Description

Says Coach K: “In all forms of leadership, whether you’re a coach, a CEO, or a parent, there are four words that, when said, can bring out the best in your team, your employees, and your family…I BELIEVE IN YOU.

These four words can mean the difference between a fear of failure and the courage to check out.”

In his previous bestselling books, Coach K has guided readers to success the way he has guided his teams at Duke University – – with the power of his inspirational words and phenomenal leadership skills.

But that used to be with college kids…..Now, Coach K has stepped up to take on an entirely new challenge – by volunteering to coach the USA Olympic Basketball team. Comprised of one of the most biggest NBA stars, Coach K had to work with huge egos and personal rivalries in an effort to create an American team that could win against the best competition on the planet and restore Team USA to the gold standard of basketball.

This is more than a celebratory book – it’s Coach K’s first-hand account of how he dealt with such stars as Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony and all of the rest to shop for into his “total team” play. Half a book on basketball, half a book on management techniques, THE GOLD STANDARD captures Coach K’s personal style and approach to getting different (and on occasion difficult) people to work hard and succeed in reaching a common goal.
