Beyond Winning by Gary M Walton

Beyond Winning by Gary M Walton

In "Beyond Winning", Gary Walton reveals the thoughts and teachings that made six coaches successful in sport. Readers get an intimate look at how each of these philosopher coaches followed a different path in his pursuit of excellence - Vince Lombardi, Woody Hayes, John Wooden, James "Doc" Counsilman, Brutus Hamilton, and Percy Cerutty. Walton devotes a chapter to each of these coaches and focuses on their ability to manage and motivate winning teams. While he notes the coaches' win / loss records and contributions to technical advances in their sports, he stresses their more significant contributions as educators and as role models.

Walton, Gary M.: - Gary M. Walton became the Founding Dean of the Graduate School of Management at the University of California, Davis in 1981 and is Professor of Economics Emeritus at the University of California, Davis. In addition, he is President Emeritus of the Foundation for Teaching Economics, where he designed and administered highly acclaimed economics and leadership programs (domestically and internationally) for high school seniors selected for their leadership potential, as well as for high school teachers. Dr. Walton credits much of his personal success to his coach at the University of California, Berkeley -- the legendary Brutus Hamilton (U.S. Head Coach of Track and Field in the 1952 Olympics), and his success as an economist to his doctoral dissertation advisor, Douglass C. North (1993 Nobel Laureate in Economics).
