From his childhood amidst the steel mills of South Yorkshire to Olympic glory and beyond, Seb Coe's story is one of extraordinary achievement.

I would describe this book as an autobiographical leadership text - Coe uses his own experiences in sport, business and politics to make valuable points in providing tips for leadership and winning results. The book is very easy to read and is entertaining, and you can feel the authors passion for everything he does. Well worth purchasing.

I had read a book about Coe written by Put Butcher (The Perfect Distance) and I was very curious about Coe's books as well. The title suggests some kind of sporting approach or methodology, however, the book is about project management. Nevertheless, it is a good one. Seb trains the reader how to create a vision, set the goals and finish as a winner based on his own sporting and business experiences. If you like to know what is behind the scenes (2012 London Olympic Games or the race memoirs of Coe), I can advise to read it. But do not expect a brilliant masterpiece, it is only a good, readable book.

This book is one of the better books about self improvement I have read. I like how Seb Coe relates his lessons to his personal experiences from both track and field and politics. He is clearly a man of many talents. This book is not ground breaking in anyway, but it is well worth a read.
