The writer weaves a story line of three people. An ex football coach who's a consultant but is depressed. An IT company in disarray due to lack of leadership and a new Football coach at a local University. It's a study in life and energy and how long they help each other while helping themselves. While each grows the ending shocks and puts a tear in ones eye.

A good book on coaching. Good storyline and a fantastic ending. Didn’t get bored through the book and awesome read even if you are looking at different aspects of coaching, motivation, culture and/or on improving oneself.

LOVE MARTIN ROONEY’S WRITING!! This book gets me so excited and it’s a book I come back to every so often to remind me about the importance of coaching and what my job/role as a coach is. Just fantastic!

This book is a wonderful read. It is story based but is an absolute tool for leadership and culture building whether for a family, a team or an organization. A joy to read.

[Jeff Geisler · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book. A lesson in leadership that can be applied in sports, business and at home. If you’ve read anything of Martin’s, you know he always delivers and High Ten is no exception.

[Sam Burt · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good teachings and lessons in culture. The story about how the mens lives were intertwined was very intriguing. How the story was written was a tad cheesy.

[Brett Wedlund · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was a super easy and enjoyable read, but if you have read much on leadership or culture there probably isn't going to be anything new in this one for you.

[Perrinel Matthieu · Rating 2 out of 5]

The story is passable. But I felt like I didn't learn anything. And that's coming from someone who loved similar books (the goal, the phoenix project).

Alot to learn from this book buy maybe a bit long, and not quite as well planned out as coach to coach
Still some good lessons though
