It's incredible to see how modern leadership mantras - high ambition,fused diversity,constant learning - have been at the centre of the highest performing sports teams for decades. Beautifully synthesised by Will and Ben,these lessons from the very best are gold for anyone who shares their belief that'nothing beats winning together'.This is not just a great sports book,or a great business book,it's a great book about sport and business. I've known Will and Ben for a long time and they are two of the sharpest minds around. This is an essential read for anyone who wants to lead and win.Completely fascinating
