However, the book is mostly based on stories from sport-related careers and sometimes it is hard to make the connection to a working day in a normal office. After binging the first series over a weekend, really enjoyed the varying perspectives from many different career paths.

If this your first dabble into the “winner” genre, I’d recommend a note of caution before you start. I've worked in many organisations and it was fascinating to compare the different cultures I've worked under and as a future leader I took away some key nuggets from Tracey Neville, Rio Ferdinand and others about how winning cultures and team ethos are built. This book might be more targeted for men since most of the examples are about football/soccer and rugby. It will help every reader apply these insights to their own lives - so they can become high performers themselves.
