Pages : 754
Book Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The NBA according to The Sports Guy—now updated with fresh takes on LeBron, the Celtics, and more! Foreword by Malcom Gladwell • “The work of a true fan . . . it might just represent the next phase of sports commentary.”—The Atlantic Bill Simmons, the wildly opinionated and thoroughly entertaining basketball addict known to millions as ESPN’s The Sports Guy, has written the definitive book on the past, present, and future of the NBA. From the age-old question of who actually won the rivalry between Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain to the one about which team was truly the best of all time, Simmons opens—and then closes, once and for all—every major pro basketball debate. Then he takes it further by completely reevaluating not only how NBA Hall of Fame inductees should be chosen but how the institution must be reshaped from the ground up, the result being the Pyramid: Simmons’s one-of-a-kind five-level shrine to the ninety-six greatest players in the history of pro basketball. And ultimately he takes fans to the heart of it all, as he uses a conversation with one NBA great to uncover that coveted thing: The Secret of Basketball. Comprehensive, authoritative, controversial, hilarious, and impossible to put down (even for Celtic-haters), The Book of Basketball offers every hardwood fan a courtside seat beside the game’s finest, funniest, and fiercest chronicler.

Football's Secret Trade
Author: Alex Duff
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119145422
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
A no-holds-barred exposé on the financial transactions of the world's favourite sport The transfer fees clubs pay to sign top players now top €4 billion a year but much of the money has been flowing out of the game. A small group of wealthy investors including Russian oligarchs, English racehorse owners and a former billionaire gold miner have seized the opportunity to enter this booming market. Some have moved in on the territory of banks and lent money to clubs in exchange for a share in fees generated by Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and dozens more of today's stars. Others have acquired obscure teams to get a piece of the pie. Even as the global financial crisis sent fortunes tumbling this select group found a profitable place to park their money. The size of the transfer market has continued to rise –- it increased seven-fold in value the last two decades, more than the FTSE share index. Between them, these wealthy investors have amassed hundreds of millions of euros in profits. At the same time, they have managed to stay out of the spotlight the world’s most popular sport brings. Football’s Secret Trade follows the money along a trail very few know about, from nondescript offices in the U.K. and ramshackle stadiums of South American clubs you have probably never heard of to offshore bank accounts in the Caribbean. Warning – you won’t see a major transfer deal in the same light again.

Liderazgo, empresa y deporte

Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 185
Book Description
¿Qué tienen en común el seleccionador nacional de baloncesto y el director general de Inditex? Aunque a simple vista pudiera parecer que más bien poco, un análisis más profundo revela multitud de paralelismos entre los que, quizá, el más significativo sea que ambos dirigen equipos ejerciendo (y gestionando) el liderazgo con el objetivo de alcanzar la excelencia (se refleje ésta en una cuenta de resultados o en un campeonato olímpico). Partiendo de las similitudes (y también de las diferencias) entre el ámbito del deporte de alta competición y el mundo de la alta gestión, Juan Carlos Cubeiro y Leonor Gallardo desarrollan un estudio conciso y ameno, repleto de referencias a casos reales y cercanos de deportistas de éxito (Fernando Alonso, Rafa Nadal, el Sevilla C.F., etc.) y de empresas y empresarios igualmente reconocidos (Microsoft, Inditex...) de los que extraen valiosas lecciones que se pueden aplicar en nuestro día a día en la búsqueda de esa excelencia. Descriptivo y formativo, Liderazgo, empresa y deporte, puede leerse desde el punto de vista del deportista o del gestor pues ofrece claves esenciales que permitirán tanto a uno como a otro alcanzar el oro en la gestión y obtener dividendos tangibles en el deporte.

The Real Madrid Way
Author: Steven G. Mandis
Publisher: BenBella Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1942952554
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
The untold story of Real Madrid: one of the most incredible turnarounds in sports and business history. Real Madrid is the most successful sports team on the planet. The soccer club has more trophies than any other sports team, including 11 UEFA Champions League trophies. However, the story behind the triumph goes beyond the players and coaches. Generally unnoticed, a management team consisting mostly of outsiders took the team from near bankruptcy to the most valuable sports organization in the world. How did Real Madrid achieve such extraordinary success? Columbia Business School adjunct professor Steven G. Mandis investigates. Given unprecedented behind-the-scenes access, Mandis is the first researcher to rigorously ana- lyze both the on-the-field and business aspects of a sports team. What he learns is completely unexpected and challenges the conventional wisdom that moneyball-fueled data analytics are the primary instruments of success. Instead, Real Madrid's winning formula both on and off the field, from player selection to financial management, is based on aligning strategy with the culture and values of its fan base. Chasing the most talented (and most expensive) players can be a recipe for a winning record, but also financial disaster, as it was for Real Madrid in the late 1990s. Real Madrid's management believes that the club exists to serve the Real Madrid community. They discovered that its fans care more about why the team exists, how their club wins, and whom it wins with versus just winning. The why, how, and whom create a community brand and identity, and inspire extraordinary passion and loyalty, which has led to amazing marketing and commercial success—in turn, attracting and paying for the best players in the world, with the values the fans expect. The club's values and culture also provide a powerful environment for these best players to work together to win trophies. The Real Madrid Way explains how Real Madrid has created and maintains a culture that drives both financial and on-the-field success. This book is an engrossing account of the lifetime of one of the greatest clubs in the most popular sport in the world, and for business and organization leaders, it's an invaluable inside look at a compelling alternative model with lasting competitive advantages that can deliver superior and sustainable returns and performance.
