In The Five STEPS to a Winning Mindset, Professor Damian Hughes, the acclaimed author of Liuuid  Thinking and How to Think  Like Sir Alex Ferguson, draws on both his life time experience and academic background within sport, organization and change  psychology to reveal the best ways  to create a winning mindset in both personal and professional life.

Having worked with some  of the top teams in the UK, and watched some  of the best coaches  in the country at work, Hughes  distills the five keys  principles that separate the best coaches  and teams from the rest: Simplicity; Tripwires; Emotions; Practical; Stories: STEPS.

The role of a sports-team leader is fascinating, complex and tough. Fantasy football leagues may  convince us that success is all about buying players and selecting a team. In reality, it is about creating winning environments - recruiting, developing and nurturing talent, effectively communicating a shared vision with a diverse collection of individuals, delivering on enormous expectations from a range of stakeholders, overcoming significant challenges, handling pressure and staying focused throughout: a set of challenges familiar to leaders in all sectors.
