Great leadership begins with great understanding. No one knows that better
than basketball legend Byron Scott and lifelong business executive Charlie
Norris who, respectively, won NBA championships and resurrected
multimillion-dollar corporations by being team players no matter their
position. Whether it's on the basketball court, in the boardroom, or in
everyday life, getting to the heads and hearts of people is paramount to
getting the most out of them.
In SLAM-DUNK SUCCESS, Scott and Norris share their parallel formulas for victory and
prove that, with the right tools, winning can happen anywhere. As a player Scott won
three championships with the Los Angeles Lakers, and as coach he twice took the New
Jersey Nets to the NBA Finals and won Coach of the Year honors with the New Orleans
Hornets. With every team his role changed, but his winning mentality never faltered. As
CEO of McKesson Water, Charlie Norris turned a $200 million-dollar company into a
company that sold ten years later for $1.1 billion dollars and, as chairman of the board
of Freshpet, he helped lead the start-up from early stage testing to become a publicly
traded company with a market value of over $350 million. In each job, he led with the
same amount of conviction and care.
Their book-which grew from their unlikely friendship and realization that two men from
completely different backgrounds could have the same leadership ideals-breaks down
their keys to motivating others, negotiating deals, and creating prosperity from scratch.
Their blueprint includes lessons on listening, turning failure into learning opportunities,
and delegating authority with extreme precision.
Leadership is a full-time job and Byron Scott and Charlie Norris's story is a guidebook
for leaders in all fields and in any position looking to better both their careers and lives.
Champions are formed when people make those around them better and this book
shows how you can be a winner every day.
