Bo’s Lasting Lessons - Bo Schembechler
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007Bo Schembechler was an American college football coach best known as the head coach at the University of Michigan, where he coached the Wolverines from 1969 until 1989. Schembechler won a total of 234 games; only Joe Paterno and Tom Osborne have recorded 200 victories in fewer games. A consummate “coach’s coach”, Schembechler combined superb technical command of the game with a fiery disposition.
In Bo’s Lasting Lessons, the coach draws on his years of experience, using first-person anecdotes to deliver timeless lessons on leadership, motivation and responsibility.
With pithy language, Bo explains that true leadership requires the compassion to actively listen to your people, and then to have the courage to do what is right every time.
Bo does not rely upon charts, graphs, or X’s and O’s to make his points; rather, he focuses on getting his players to challenge themselves and to reach for heights they had never thought possible.
