Publisher's summary

Art Williams had a gift. He knew that to win not just one game for his high school team but begin a legacy of winning, he had to work with the only assets available—his team.

Art had learned from the other mentoring coaches in his life that winning had far more to do with what was in the heart of his players and their “will to win” than what they looked like or where they came from. Focusing on the hearts absolutely built winning teams, and garnered two Georgia Coach of Year awards.

From these simple yet powerful principles, Art Williams went on to build a company that changed the face of one of the largest industries in the world...the life insurance industry. By applying the philosophy of “Pushing Up People”, a group of 85 former teachers, policeman, fireman, and coaches, built a company of 200,000 strong and literally changed forever the lives of countless families.

So now....a step-by-step guide to the “people management” concepts behind one of the greatest success stories in American business.

You’ll Learn...

  • Why victory doesn’t always go to the smartest people.
  • The three things people want most from their job.
  • Four kinds of “failure fears” and how to guard against them

STAY TRUE

I enjoyed Pushing Up People primarily because Art Williams wrote it but also he relates his story from a coach's point of view. Although I didn't coach basketball for very long (8 years on the middle school level), coaching is part of my nature. I'd like to like to push up people the way Art did, cause coaching others to big wins in business will help me win big too.
