Thank you, John Wooden!
I own and love several John Wooden books. The 10-time NCAA basketball champion was a wise, wise, wise man and a marvelous teacher.
I’m grateful he never stopped preaching his brilliant philosophy of basketball life after retiring from coaching because we all can benefit from his wisdom. I certainly have.
I highly recommend these two to anyone who values excellence:
- Wooden: A Lifetime of Observations and Reflections on and Off the Court
- Wooden on Leadership: How to Create a Winning Organization
(The L.A. Times has published a long obituary I’m now beginning to read.)
