From Andre Agassi, one of the most beloved athletes in history and one of the most gifted men ever to step onto a tennis court, a beautiful, haunting autobiography. Agassi brings a near-photographic memory to every pivotal match and every relationship. Never before has the inner game of tennis and the outer game of fame been so precisely limned. In clear, taut prose, Agassi evokes his loyal brother, his wise coach, his gentle trainer, all the people who help him regain his balance and find love at last with Stefanie Graf.

Great detail, inspiring but felt like it stretched on
I liked most of the book. Did a great job of telling the story of the 49ers and the standards and cultures that they built. As the story went on, it went into specific rules that the readers should do, which I wasn’t a huge fan of. Felt like the book tried turning itself into a step by step guide for what you need to do instead of letting yourself determine how to manage a team based off the experiences in the book.

A bit stodgy and sometimes the war stories are somewhat repetitive but there's a goldmine of life guiding principles inside.

Decent story. Not to nit pick but the over pronunciation of “San Francisco”and “Environment” and over usage made it very hard to finish this.

Decent for early career leaders or business students.
If you’ve already read/listened to other leadership books, you won’t really learn much from this that you haven’t already heard, it’s all pretty basic foundational stuff. However, if you are new to leadership books, I think this is a decent starter. One thing I liked was that, because it’s entirely focused on a single industry, it’s easy to follow and visualize the concepts in practice (plus, it’s football, so it’s fun). If you are going into your first management job or studying for an undergraduate degree in business, this is pretty good - if you are experienced, you won’t gain much. Instead of this book, I would recommend ‘Straight from the gut’ by Jack Welch, it’s basically just a better version of this book.
