Just then he happens to meet a very special coach who shares nine life-changing lessons that keep Martin's dream alive...and might even make him the best of the best. Based on his work with professional sports teams, world-class sales organizations, and interviews with top professionals in a wide variety of fields, Gordon reveals the deep truths and proven strategies that get the best to the top of their game. Training Camp shows how the very best performers-whether it be in sports or in business-all share the same nine qualities. Among other traits, the best of the best are able to maintain a big-picture vision while taking zoom-focused actions, they are mentally stronger, they inspire excellence in the people around them, and they become the model by which others measure themselves. For anyone who wants to make it to the top of their field, Training Camp is a practical life-changing story with simple wisdom about what true excellence requires-and how anyone can achieve it., Training Camp is an inspirational story filled with invaluable lessons and insights on bringing out the best in yourself and your team.
