How do you get the best out of people? What does it take to make a team thrive? From the head coach of the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team and legendary coach of Chelsea FC comes a book of hard-won lessons for leading a team to success, on and off the field.

Few places will test your leadership skills more than elite sport. As the head coach for the U.S. Women's National Team and former long-time manager of Chelsea FC Women with 14 major trophies under her belt, Emma Hayes has dealt with it all: making split-second tactical decisions with millions of people watching, rallying her team in the dressing room to turn a losing position into a win, and intensively managing the care and training of her players so they perform at their best. How does she do that? By leading with care, empathy and respect for the people on the field.

In A Completely Different Game, Hayes shares her boots-on-the-ground approach to leading any team to success. Beginning with her upbringing in Camden, working with her father at the Jubilee Market Hall in Covent Garden and playing on her first football team, to her move across the Atlantic to lead one of the biggest teams in the world, Hayes recounts all the hard-won lessons in between, such as:

- Why knowing your team members - and what makes them tick - is crucial to managing effectively.

- How your organisational values become decision-making tools, and how to unite your team around them too.

- What motherhood taught Hayes about leadership, and how she became more impactful as a coach as a result.

- How to leverage your position as a force for good, drawing on Hayes's work to further women's healthcare in sports, as well as her own health issues.

Whether you're in the locker room, in the boardroom or in a cubicle, teamwork is the bedrock of success. This book will help you lead with heart, strength and authenticity, no matter what challenge you're facing.
