All stars
Most relevant  
Excellent insight to the business and sporting life of Sir Clive Woodwood.
Narration spoiled by poor editing as quite a few lines were repeated, unlike Sir Clive no attention to detail

Great insight to Sir Clive

Well researched and insightful look at one of World leaders in leadership and management in both sport and business.

audio book should have been narrated by a woman as written by one and sometimes in the 1st person.

also appears not to have been edited -at all- the narrator often repeats lines that he's messed up and they are both left in. wondered for a while if my player was messing up.

Great insight but poor editing

Really enjoyed this insight into Clive Woodward. The only annoying thing was the amount of times the narrator repeated or half repeated the previous line of the book which got to be fairly irritating. Were they just in a huge hurry!? Anyway I highly recommend it.

Enjoyable and informative

Editing is poor.Skips and repeats a lot. But very interesting. I can recommend this book

bad editing

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Sentences were repeated frequently, often in different tones of voice as if it was a pre production edit. Nowhere near the usual quality. Spoiled a good insight into a sporting genius.

Terrible edit of a good book
