Book Reviews of Bo's Lasting Lessons: The Legendary Coach Teaches the Timeless Fundamentals of Leadership
Book Review: Lasting Impressions
Summary: 5 Stars
Very enjoyable read. Especially relevant for someone nearing a milestone in their career. Many people can benefit from Bo's word or at least enjoy his anecdotes.
I had to hold back some tears near the end. (Especially about what Kenny Root wrote in the Reflections chapter). What a great man. My favorite line is in the introduction, "Bo insulted you to your face... and praised you behind your back." He seemed to be a on-of-a-kind, which I'm sure he'd say is a sad thing in this day and age.
I have grown up a big Cal Golden Bears fan (suffering through many, many terrible years), then attended grad school in the height of Pete Carroll's career at USC. And although still a Pac-10 fan, I now have a greater sense of the foundation and history that built Michigan's football program than even my own alma mater.

Summary of Bo's Lasting Lessons: The Legendary Coach Teaches the Timeless Fundamentals of Leadership
During his record-setting tenure as coach of the Michigan Wolverines, Bo won thirteen Big Ten titles and finished as the winningest football coach in the school's storied history. But if you asked him, his most important achievement was having a remarkably positive impact on the hundreds of athletes he coached. In these pages, you'll hear Bo's distinctive voice as he shares the principles he applied on the football field and in the locker room to create a football dynasty, and he'll tell you how you can apply his insights to any leadership role. His words will educate, motivate, and inspire-just as the man himself did every day.Leadership Books
