KEY TAKEAWAYS


Remember to furnish your life with truth, courage, and beauty. This noble aim can guide leaders, managers, and coaches in their endeavours.


There are valuable lessons in defeat, while victory offers only one lesson. Embrace defeat as an opportunity for analysis and growth.


The worse you feel, the more committed you become. Emotions should not dictate your level of commitment. Push through challenges and maintain dedication regardless of how you feel.


Constantly move from theory to practice to mastery. Seek knowledge and understanding, apply it in practice, and continue to improve until you reach mastery.


Be present and focus on the present moment. Avoid getting caught up in past traumas or future worries. Tolerate others but hold yourself to high standards. Limit your thoughts to the present and deal with what is in front of you now.

The Leader Manager Coach Story

Rob pays tribute to the legendary English football manager, Brian Clough. Rob reflects on Clough's upbringing in a working-class family, his incredible goal-scoring record as a player, and his subsequent rise to become one of the greatest football managers in history. Rob delves into Clough's successful principles, such as his emphasis on recruiting good players and his belief in the importance of the spine of a team. He also explores Clough's challenges, including his infamous 44 days at Leeds United and his struggles with alcohol. Through personal anecdotes and insights from Clough's autobiography, Riles provides listeners with a deeper understanding of the enigmatic and influential figure that was Brian Clough.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Brian Clough was a highly successful football manager who achieved great success with Derby County and Nottingham Forest.


Clough believed in recruiting good players and letting them play, emphasizing the importance of having talented individuals in the team.


He had a strong partnership with Peter Taylor, who complemented Clough's strengths and weaknesses, leading to their success as a managerial duo.


Clough's management style was simple and focused on man management rather than complex coaching systems.


Despite his success, Clough's ego and personal issues, including his struggles with alcohol, affected his relationships and ultimately led to his downfall.

BEST MOMENTS

"He was outspoken. He was a rebel. He was talented and successful." 

"Clough recruited good players and got two, three, and more years out of them than anybody else believed was possible."

"He admits he was egotistical. He admits he didn't listen. And he admits now he did it the wrong way."

"He often sent flowers to wives and his way of getting an influence over the player was to speak to the player's wife." 

"He was an unorthodox. He would pull no punches and he would be demanding in terms of what he wanted."
