Bo's Lasting Lessons: The Legendary Coach Teaches the Timeless Fundamentals of Leadership by Bo Schembechler

Fantastic book! A must for any Michigan football fan but also amazing reading for anybody who has to manage people. Bo's approach to his team can be applied to any situation where goals need to be set and people need to be managed.
