It's no different in sports, where coaches and players use a film room to slow the game down, run it back, and pull out the moments that made the difference.

You're the Greatest!
Early in my career, I had the privilege of meeting and hearing Francis Maguire speak to our team at Computer Associates in NY.

His book serves as a management guide, emphasizing that essential leadership ingredients are universal and focus on people, not just materials.
