Dan Carter is a widely hailed as one of the most elite and successful professional rugby players in the world.
After retiring from a sport he played for 32 years, he set out to inspire the next generation of leaders to create purposeful impact, joining the Oxford Foundry - Oxford University's Entrepreneurial Institute, founded by LinkedIn co-found Reid Hoffman - as its first ever Leader in Practice. Now, in a follow-up to his bestselling 2015 autobiography, he answers timeless questions for aspiring leaders everywhere. Why is the team more important than the individual? How do you navigate the transition from player to leader? How should we respond when confidence is eclipsed by doubt, when circumstances get the better of us, when setbacks derail us? How can we remain humble and grounded when we're winning - and how can we keep on winning, even when a loss may be just around the corner?
Full of inspiring personal stories of both victories and setbacks, the greatest rugby sportsman reflects on his career, shares his own secrets of high performance, and reveals the art of exceeding your highest expectations.
This book is your new bible for life. This is the book that is going to give you the words of wisdom, the messages, everything you need to navigate your everyday life. It's not a book about rugby, it's a book about life. * Jake Humphrey, author of 'High Performance' *
The Art of Winning is a transformative guide. This book brims with wisdom and inspiration. A must-read for aspiring goal conquerors seeking to unlock their true potential. * Greg McKeown, podcaster and author of New York Times bestsellers of 'Essentialism' and 'Effortless' *
Dan Carter's candid, unconventional take on leadership should be read by anyone who wants to build a great team culture, redefine their purpose or exceed their own expectations - and anyone who has ever been held back by self-doubt. Truly inspiring. * Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn *
Sets out a powerful common sense framework on how to get the best out of yourself and those around you. [Dan Carter] gives a fresh voice to this timeless idea... this book is an artefact to Dan's amazing job of re-purposing himself. * Owen Eastwood *
