Reach for the Summit

Description

Pat Summitt, head coach of the Universityof Tennessee Lady Vols, is a phenomenon in women’s basketball. Her ferociously competitive teams won the NCAA championship in 1996 and 1997, and they’ve won five times in the last ten years. After twenty-four years as head coach at Tennessee, Summitt is well on her way to becoming the winningest coach in NCAA Division 1 women’s history.

Now Summitt has written the first motivational book by a high-achieving female coach. In “Reach for the Summit, ” she presents her formula for success, which she calls the “Definite Dozen System.” In each of the book’s twelve chapters, Summitt talks about one of the system’s principles — such as responsibility, discipline, and loyalty — ans shows you how to apply it to your own situation.
