  What’s the score?”, “we’re playing the long game!” and “a game of two halves” are now familiar phrases around the boardroom table. The links between football and business have become glaringly obvious, and in Business and the Beautiful Game the authors draw an analogy between these two worlds.



This lively and entertaining book provides a framework for a fresh way of thinking about business, helping readers to remember what’s important, on and off the pitch and in and out of the workplace. Combining wit and wisdom, this book makes useful observations without taking the business world too seriously.



A must-read for those wanting to tackle the corporate world from a new angle!
