Books
- The Games Leaders Play: How People Just Like YOU Are Making A Difference and Winning in Athletics, Business, Faith, and Life by Brian Dodd – I hope every sports fan preorders my new best-selling book. The principles in this book are supported by leadership lessons from Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid, Bill Parcells, Steph Curry, Aaron Judge, Ronald Acuna Jr., Bruce Bochy, Nick Saban, Pep Guardiola, Connor Bedard, Novak Djokovic, Katie Ledecky, and countless others.
- The Why Is Everything: The Story of Football, Rivalry, and Revolution by Michael Silver – As I read this book, it struck me. Even though this is an incredible football and leadership book, this is really a book about creativity. When Kyle Shanahan became the NFL’s youngest offensive coordinator in 2008, he had one prevailing rule: Tell me the why. If a colleague couldn’t justify his position by providing the unassailable reasoning behind it, he was told to get the hell out of Shanahan’s office. Shanahan and the members of his coaching tree―including Sean McVay, Mike McDaniel, Raheem Morris, and Matt LaFleur―came up in a sport where innovation was the exception, not the rule.
- Revenge of the Tipping Point: Overstories, Superspreaders, and the Rise of Social Engineering by Malcolm Gladwell – Twenty-five years after the publication of his groundbreaking first book, Malcolm Gladwell returns with a brand-new volume that reframes the lessons of The Tipping Point in a startling and revealing light.
