🚀 🚀 🚀 I finally got round to reading the brilliant “𝑳𝒆𝒈𝒂𝒄𝒚” by James Kerr recently on holiday.

💡 💯 🎯 A must for anyone interested in 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑, 𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆 and, of course, 𝒓𝒖𝒈𝒃𝒚. Some deep and meaningful insights on the All Blacks that are relevant to anyone who is 𝒍𝒆𝒂𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒉𝒊𝒈𝒉 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒔.

I love the 15 lessons in leadership:
