Sport can teach us about leadership in many ways. Eddie Jones shows how to be a leader in a high-performance and high-pressure environment and how these lessons can be applied to every walk of life, from coaching the U9 rugby team to leading a multinational organization to simply doing your job better.

Jones has a voracious ambition to improve every day and reveals the lessons he has learnt from Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Pep Guardiola, and the founder of Uniqlo and Ron Adams from the NBA. He also gives a detailed analysis of his own performance as a coach and how he gets the best out of the players and coaches around him.

He also shares stories of nearly thirty years of coaching, including the 2003, 2007, 2015, and 2019 World Rugby campaigns, the full story of England's 2021 Six Nations campaign, and why it takes humor, humility, and relentless curiosity to lead an eclectic mix of superstars from Maro Itoje to James Haskell, George Smith to Kyle Sinckler, to create teams that are relentlessly hungry to win.

Leadership is the ultimate rugby book about what it takes to be the best. Written with Donald McRae, two-time winner of the W.
