Look forward to meeting @gabriel_zucman soon. A must read!

Just found out through this tweet that my book How Tyrants Fall appears to be available in Farsi (!) in Iran? Like you can buy it as a physical book in bookshops in Tehran or whatever. Can someone who speaks Farsi please tell me whether this is actually real?

For years, athletic directors and sports executives have made costly mistakes too often when leading a head coaching search. I recently finished reading Credible – The Power of Expert Leaders by Amanda Goodall. Reading this book should be a requirement for all ADs and sports executives. These decision-makers can learn from Amanda Goodall’s insightful perspective, examples, and research about who should actually lead and how to identify that person. I’ve read more than 200 books on decision-making, business successes, leadership, and coaches. More than any book, this one will help decision-makers avoid mistakes made by many.
