A winning mindset is a state of mental fluency that helps people to deliver their full potential, and is the key ingredient to long-term success. Nowhere is a winning mindset more clearly on display than in the high-pressure environment of the sporting arena.
Drawing on his own experience of working with some of the world's top coaches across multiple disciplines, Professor Damian Hughes distils the ingredients of successful teams, from FC Barcelona to the New Zealand All Blacks, down to five key elements to show how you can create and maintain a winning mindset to achieve the best in any situation.
The principles of the winning mindset - Simplicity, Thinking, Emotions, Practical, Stories - can be applied to every professional or personal environment, with dramatic results. Covering the key components to individual and team success, from nurturing talent to communicating a shared vision, handling pressure to staying focused, The Winning Mindset is the ultimate handbook for getting the best out of yourself or your team.
'Building a great business requires a leader to pay attention to many different factors. The most important one is the requirement to recruit, develop and get the very best from your people. In this regard, sport and business contain some obvious parallels and Damian Hughes has highlighted these methods in his excellent book. I would encourage you to make time to read it'
