It will also provide inspiration for readers looking to perform better, achieve more, and change both their own lives and those of the people they influence.
A compelling, practical, and hopeful read filled with relatable stories and useful exercises, The Only Way to Win will serve as a powerful wake-up call for Business leaders, employees, teachers, and coaches.
To help readers start this process, he provides them with the tools they need to develop these Character traits, as well as the plan they need to use them effectively.
As Loehr powerfully demonstrates, success at work and Fulfillment in Life require a complete re-purposing of achievement, one where value is derived from growth in areas such as integrity, honesty, gratefulness, humility, optimism, and compassion.
It\'s not really about what you achieve, he argues, it\'s about who you become as a consequence of the chase.
Specifically, Loehr finds that the blind pursuit of external Achievement often results in emptiness, addiction, and, ironically, poor performance.
If these well-intentioned promises are true, why does winning never seem to be enough? In The Only Way to Win , Jim Loehr draws upon two decades of work with Fortune 500 executives; world-class athletes such as Monica Seles, Dan Jansen, and Eric Lindros; and other high achievers at the Human Performance Institute (HPI) to reveal surprising insights about Achievement motivation.
Great achievements will bring lasting happiness and fulfillment; great achievements form the bedrock of stable self-esteem and strong character; great achievements will become the foundation for a successful life.
