Overview

Win the mental game before you ever step out on the field
Commonsense Leadership is the playbook for leaders who want to win. From rallying the team to hitting it out of the park, every leader needs to understand the mental game. It's what separates winners from survivors, and champions from second place-it's what gives your team the edge, and the strength to forge ahead through adversity. This audiobook shows you how to boost performance with tips and advice gathered over 45 years of working with major corporations and world-class athletes. Whether your team battles on the field or in the boardroom, the mental component is a critical factor in determining outcomes-and left neglected, can become the number-one driving force behind failure.

A winning team must be highly skilled, but they must also be resilient, motivated, attentive, and ready to charge the field. Skills can be taught, but the mental factor comes from the environment and the leadership. This book shows you how to boost performance, with real-world solutions for instilling that razor-sharp mental edge.

Commonsense Leadership reveals the secrets to motivation and performance, with practical techniques for building a winning team.
