Sinossi
Nel corso della sua leggendaria carriera come capo allenatore dei Chicago Bulls e dei Los Angeles Lakers, Phil Jackson ha vinto più campionati di qualsiasi allenatore nella storia dello sport professionistico. Jackson è stato etichettato "il maestro Zen", quasi per scherzo dai giornalisti sportivi, ma il soprannome racconta una verità importante: è un allenatore che ha ispirato, non pungolato; che ha fatto da guida, risvegliando e sfidando i migliori propositi della natura dei suoi giocatori, non il loro ego, la paura o l'avidità. È la storia del figlio di un predicatore del North Dakota che è cresciuto fino a diventare uno dei leader più innovativi del nostro tempo. Nella sua ricerca per reinventare se stesso, Jackson ha esplorato tutto, dalla psicologia umanistica, alla filosofia dei nativi americani, alla meditazione Zen. In questo processo, ha sviluppato un nuovo approccio alla leadership basata sulla libertà, l'autenticità, e il lavoro di squadra altruista che ha trasformato il mondo ipercompetitivo degli sport professionistici.

Good quick read. Different look at all 11 championship runs. It always amazes me at how much preparation, energy and thought go into a single game or series. This book shows how mental the game of basketball is. This is refreshing these days considering our country celebrates mediocrity and stupidit Leggi tutto
This is a wonderful sports but that is chocked full of action from one of the greatest coaches of all time. His comments about stars like Jordan, Pippin, Rodman, Shaw and Kobe were impressive. They also had me meandering back to those incidents and had me remembering where I was for them. Additional Leggi tutto
I love this book. It's a perfect storm in reverse: every good thing about it is enhanced by all the other good things that surround it. For a lifelong basketball fan with a deep interest in spiritual practice, creative improvisation, managing talent, and eliciting outstanding performance, it's a head Leggi tutto
There was much less about practical coaching and management wisdom than I hoped for in this book. It's not evident that Jackson is reading and learning from other management and leadership works himself, or other coaches other than those who have already been with him for years. He quotes a few Budd Leggi tutto
This latest installment of Phil Jackson's war stories presents his sports career, first as a double NBA champion with the New York Knicks, then as an eleven-time NBA champion (the current record) with Michael Jordan's Chicago Bulls and Shaquille O'Neal/Kobe Bryant's LA Lakers. The book covers this p Leggi tutto
As somebody who grew up in the UK, basketball isn’t a sport I was surrounded by. My husband however is a huge fan and after watching “The last dance” with him and finding it really interesting, I decided that I wanted to learn more about the man who lead the Chicago Bulls to multiple successes. (It’ Leggi tutto
This book was cool, I have a huge amount of respect for Phil, I just wish the book went deeper. Not just a chapter on each of the bulls championship seasons with a little story or tid bit about Rodman or Pippen or Kobe here and there. The book could have really dived into who each of these people we Leggi tutto
