Karren Brady did it. At 23 she took over as Managing Director of Birmingham City Football Club, becoming the youngest ever female Managing Director of a UK PLC when it floated in 1997. Although the club was the \"football equivalent of a rubbish dump\" and women were barely even seen on the terraces in the early 90s, Karren Brady persuaded her backers to acquire the club and single-mindedly revolutionised it, clearing the debt, taking Birmingham City into the Premier League and transforming it into a viable business.  \u003cp\u003eHow did she do it? How did a 23-year-old woman with little previous experience at this level of management walk into a man?s world and achieve such success? In \u003ci\u003ePlaying to Win\u003c\/i\u003e, she reveals her secrets and shares with other women the techniques they can adopt to succeed in their own lives, on their own terms. Her ten motivational rules are self-help classics: ambition, determination, courage, charm, hard work, attitude, humour, confidence, focus and communication. \u003ci\u003ePlaying to Win\u003c\/i\u003e shows women how to grow in each of these areas and achieve the success they dream of. And like all great self-help, her principles apply across all areas of experience - work and personal life. \u003ci\u003ePlaying to Win\u003c\/i\u003e is a handbook for success in any situation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMoving from Karren?s story, how she has transformed a business and maintained a full and stable personal life, to a chapter-by-chapter study of the ten principles successful women need to adopt, \u003ci\u003ePlaying to Win\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for women who want to have it all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Starting Out 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 The Ten Principles Of Success 21\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Making Your Mark 37\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Selling Your Dreams 57\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Under The (Media) Spotlight 71\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Winning Against The Odds 89\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 The Tricks Of The Trade 103\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Creating The Right Culture 121\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Family Ties 135\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 The Winning Habit 147\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEpilogue: Some Final Words Of Advice 163\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 165\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Business \u0026amp; management [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Business \u0026amp; management\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Business%20\u0026amp;%20management%20%5BKJ%5D%22\"\u003eKJ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Capstone","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52460676940056,"sku":"9781841125633","price":8.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781841125633.jpg?v=1785457932","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/playing-to-win-10-steps-to-achieving-your-goals-paperback-softback-9781841125633","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
