What to expect
THE INSIDE STORY OF WHAT IT TAKES TO BUILD HIGH PERFORMING TEAMS
In Winning Together, Helen and Kate Richardson-Walsh, share powerful lessons from the Great Britain women's hockey team journey to gold in Rio 2016. They show how to create a winning culture in any environment, in any industry, so that you and your teammates can thrive.
Drawing on their vast experience both in and out of sport, double Olympic medalists Helen and Kate, tell the incredible, behind-the-scenes story of how a team from the lower rankings forced its way to the top. They bring you into their team huddle to reflect and work through exercises to help improve your performance. Using their individual and collective stories they demonstrate that successful teams are made up of people who are valued as human beings and supported to individually flourish.
Covering connection, care, awareness, empowerment, alignment, the power of difference and much more, Winning Together gives you the tools to be the very best version of yourself, and to build better teams.

Critics Review
-
"Many have tried to write books about winning that parallel the sporting experience and lessons learned. However, Kate and Helen's book manages to translate some of the more intangible precursors for success and describe them in a way that would be useful to another athlete or someone starting their first job in the business world. This book is human, warm and a welcome addition to the bookshelf of any person looking to learn from their remarkable example."
John Amaechi, Psychologist

"This is the inside scoop, the real-deal on how to build winning cultures that keep people at the heart of things. The articulate details and storytelling from athletes and leaders who have walked the path is a must-read for anyone interested in contemporary performance leadership."
Dr. Pippa Grange, Psychologist & Culture-Coach
-
"Finally! A book that takes a different perspective on success and leadership. Kate and Helen's incredible story shows how there is a new emerging model of how to build a successful and authentic team environment - whether at work, on the sports pitch or at home. How honesty, vulnerability, conflict and ambition can co-exist to produce extraordinary results for the team and the individuals. And even maybe change the world a little bit for the better."
Michele (Mitch) Oliver, Global VP Brand & Purpose, Mars Incorporated, and Vice Chair Stonewall
