'A great read and a fascinating insight into performance.' Sir Clive Woodward We
all want to discover our hidden talents and make an impact with them. But how?
Rasmus Ankersen, an ex-footballer and performance specialist, quit his job and f
or six intense months lived with the world's best athletes in an attempt to answ
er this question. Why have the best middle distance runners grown up in the same
Ethiopian village? Why are the leading female golfers from South Korea? How did
one athletic club in Kingston, Jamaica, succeed in producing so many world-clas
s sprinters? Ankersen presents his surprising conclusions in seven lessons on ho
w anyone - or any business, organisation or team - can defy the many misconcepti
ons of high performance and learn to build their own gold mine of real talent.
