During his 51-year football-coaching career at St. John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota, John Gagliardi's teams have averaged just under 62 points per game and he has now achieved the all-time "winningest" college football coaching title. Yet Coach Gagliardi is a maverick who dares to say "NO" to traditional coaching rules: no precision warm-up drills, no tackling in practice, no conventional calisthenics, no cheerleaders, no playbooks, no mission statements, and no discipline problems.

excellent afternoon read August 24, 2005
I loved Coach Gagliardi's methods. Although, I don't agree with everything he believes in that it can be transferred to the workplace; I do think he has a outlook that more businesses should look at. Simple quick read.

I manage a large staff in a financial services firm. Since I started the position a year ago, I've had problems dealing with the various personalities on staff and keeping productivity at an acceptable level. After reading this book a few weeks ago, I immediately started implementing the suggestions in "No How Coaching." Now, I can tell everyone that I've already seen results, which shocks even me because nothing else has worked. Productivity has increased. My staff is working better together. This book is amazing! If you are a company president or the lowliest peon, read this book and your business WILL IMPROVE!
