54 THE LEADERSHIP CODESELF-IMPROVEMENT
THE LEADERSHIP
CODENOVEMBER 2017
Paul “Whitey” Kapsalis is a
sales representative in Indianapolis, IN,
where he has successfully built a loyal
customer base� Recognized in the
Indianapolis Business Journal’s “Forty
Under 40” list for positive contributions, he
won the Indiana Youth Soccer Presidents
Award in 2010 and the Indiana Sports
Corporation Volunteer of the Year Award�
Paul is also a youth minister and Eucharistic minister� As a soccer coach he
inspires participants to reach for their goals every day�
Ted Gregory is a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter at the Chicago
Tribune� In addition to his newspaper work, Ted is co-author of Our Black
Year, a nonfiction account of an African-American family’s effort to
patronize black-owned businesses exclusively for one year� He lives near
Chicago, IL, with his wife and children�
The conventional perception of a leader is someone who
carries a certain status or holds a particular office: captain,
coach or manager of a sports team, or CEO� Those positions
certainly place people in leadership roles, but anyone in any
position can be a leader� The Leadership Code explores that
unconventional notion of personal leadership and blends it
with the conventional perception by telling the journey of Paul
“Whitey” Kapsalis, who grew into leadership roles in sports,
business, and other areas of his life from his own experiences
and through the observations of people he encountered on his
path� He calls them exceptional everyday leaders�
The authors’ approach starts with philotimo–a Greek word
that roughly translates to pride in doing the right thing, but
encompasses a much broader philosophy akin to servant
leadership� Philotimo reflects pride and motivation based in
a humility that values others above oneself� It also begins
with a commitment to yourself and a decision to be a leader
who cares more about those around you and overall results
than individual acclaim; a leader with heart�
In this concise book, you’ll read about the different places in
life where leadership presents itself: in a family, in sports,
and in business� In each of those instances, the authors
emphasize that it doesn’t matter what place you occupy�
What matters is how you occupy that place� That message is
communicated by sharing Paul’s story, the stories of others,
and the lessons they learned�

TRAIN YOUR FASCIA, TONE YOUR BODY
OCTOBER 2017
Fasciae are a building network in our body that gives us
support, structure, and form� Whether a thigh looks tightly
stretched or rather like jelly basically depends on the tone
of the fibrous connective tissue—the fascia—which
surrounds it� Therefore, we must train fasciae in addition to
muscles� Only then do we have a well-formed and firm
body shape, and training fasciae is the only consistent way
to get rid of cellulite, bat wings, and a flabby bottom� Not
only does training your fasciae ensure a fit body, but it also
enables you to move with juvenile elasticity, easily and
painlessly� In cooperation with Dr� Robert Schleip, a
renowned researcher of fascia, Divo Müller has developed
new exercises for people who have rather weak connective
tissue� Her new full-body program is presented in this
clearly illustrated guide for physiotherapists, movement
trainers, Pilates, yoga and fitness coaches�

THE COACH'S GUIDE TO MIND MAPPING
OCTOBER 2017
The Coach's Guide to Mind Mapping is a tool that will help
you become an expert coach� Although this particular
learning resource uses soccer examples, it is a technique
that can be universally applied within any sporting context�
Because the current demands of modern-day (soccer)
coaching require coaches to know and deliver a greater deal
of knowledge to players, the mind mapping technique aims
to support the coaching process by helping you to identify
and develop your ability to recall technical and tactical
knowledge from memory� Additionally, the resource can be
used to help facilitate the knowledge acquisition process as
the learner journeys through their coaching qualifications
while developing key learning skills�
This book focuses on developing how you–the coach–can
remember, organize, and deliver the technical and tactical
information that your players need� It contains guidelines
for developing, creating, and evaluating the impact of the
mind mapping technique� Familiar soccer themes are used
to help you follow the mind mapping examples with ease�
Simple worksheets help you to practice the mind mapping
technique, reflect on your development, and set personal
targets� So go ahead–learn, coach, develop!

MORE THAN 90 MINUTES
Alejandro Pérez lives by and for soccer� For more
than ten years he has followed the action of every
important league in Europe, match day by match day�
Alejandro currently works as a journalist and commentator
for Telemundo in the United States, the company that owns
the rights of the Premier League and the World Cup�
Previously he worked for ESPN�
More Than 90 Minutes is an analysis of tactics, signings,
managers, players, and club directors’ decisions� Based on
real examples taken from recent soccer history, the author
dissects these people’s mistakes, their successes, and how
their actions on and off the pitch impacted their play and
their trophy cabinets� It is a critical account arising from a
weekly study made over the course of ten years of the top
European leagues and clubs such as Manchester United,
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real
Madrid, Atlético de Madrid, Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, and
Borussia Dortmund� The author presents and compares the
processes followed by these teams–the ones that were
successful as well as those that failed–while analytically
assessing the most important aspects that make up the
game of soccer�
The book selects specific situations in relevant clubs where
tactics, psychology, and the ability to manage a group of
players are combined� Without claiming to find a nonexistent
magic formula, it helps the reader–whether they are simply a
fan, manager, player, or director–to understand the intricacies
of this complex sport and to put themselves on the road that
is certain to lead to success� This book is one of a kind in the
history of soccer literature, and it is written in a readable,
emphatic, and reflexive style�

RUNNING WITH LYDIARD
New Zealander Arthur Lydiard was the most successful trainer
of middle- and long-distance running in the world� He coached runners
from different countries, such as Peter Snell (three times gold) and Lasse
Viren (four times gold)� In the 50s and 60s Arthur Lydiard not only
revolutionized the middle- and long-distance training, but parallel to this
development he may be considered one of the founders of the jogging
movement�
Garth Gilmour is a journalist and was Lydiard’s co-author since
1960� He has written biographies of famous athletes Murray Halberg,
Peter Snell, Sandra Barwick—world famous as an ultra-distance runner—
and paraplegic sportswoman Eve Rimmer�
Since the outstanding success of his New Zealand athletes
Snell, Halberg, and Magee at the 1960 Rome Olympics,
Arthur Lydiard’s name has been synonymous with the best
training methods used by the world’s top middle- and long-
distance runners� His training plans precipitated an athletic
revolution, stressing physiological conditioning as a
prerequisite to sporting effort and long-duration, even-pace
running at a strong speed as the means of achieving
success� Arthur Lydiard instructed runners and coaches in
Finland, Mexico, Venezuela, Denmark, Japan, the United
States, and New Zealand for more than 50 years and had
continued to experiment and refine his methods�
Running with Lydiard contains expanded information on
exercise physiology, diet, injury prevention and cure, discussion
