Every coach and leader should read this book.

I wish I had played four more coaches and teams that emphasized the principles found in this book. I started off coaching with great passion but spent too much time coaching as I had been coached. It took years to find out for myself what Jon teaches so well through this book. we played games for fun as children and it should stay that way throughout. The techniques in this book can keep the fun in the game while also making sure athletes what to stay in the game rather than burning out prematurely.

Worth the read

I was assigned to read this for work and was very annoyed to have work homework, however this guy knows his stuff. I feel empowered and focused, and I definitely am more conscious of spreading positivity vs complaining all the time. It’s worth the read if you want to grow and strengthen your team
