Description

The modern world is networked and always working. Organizations no longer have the luxury of time. Expertise is no longer confined to a couple of smart guys in corner offices, reviewing information to which only they have access and issuing instructions through layers of middle-men to nine-to-fivers who carry out the dictates and feed paper back up the chain, awaiting the next set of instructions.

Today’s successful organization is decentralized and never stops moving.

In fact, organizational success is a lot like soccer.

Every player is both a specialist and generalist. Responsibility on the field is distributed, and everyone on the team works for everyone else.

Communication among players is constant. Soccer is 90 minutes of systems thinking in action. Soccer Thinking for Management Success is by a soccer fan and player who has spent a career building and running teams and organizations.

He draws on insights from leaders, known and not-so-well-known who use soccer thinking to succeed.

This is not just another book on how to be a great leader by a famous person.

This is a management and leadership book by, and for, the rest of us.
