It's How You Play the Game Reviews

It is with admiration and gratitude that I recommend this book to anyone who sees themselves as a leader and wants to lead with head, hands and heart. David has a remarkable way of weaving his experience as a player and subsequent years as a leader with what he learned under Coach Smith. The 12 Leadership Principles can be a shot in the arm during a challenging day or a playbook over a lifetime for leadership and life.
