β¦ Synopsis
Three words at the top of the book cover summarize critical concepts in this well-written book: Focus, Perform, Succeed. Yet how? The "how" and the "why" are contained in this title. As the authors write in the introduction, "At their core, the five attributes of Performance Intelligence are the same in both sports and business: focus, confidence, a winning game plan, self-discipline, and competitiveness."
I appreciated the sports lessons combined with specific application for the reader. I recommend this book.
