The Corporate Athlete - Jack Groppel
Jack Groppel is a speaker-consultant on business issues and a
partner in a company that helps sports stars such as Ernie Els and
Monica Seles enhance their competitive edge by fine-tuning their
training regimens and overall lifestyles. In The Corporate
Athlete, he proposes a total program of nutrition, exercise,
and spiritual fitness that's designed to do the same for those
competing in the world of business. "Executives and employees
in the new millennium can protect their health and happiness and
continue to perform at high levels only by doing what athletes
do--train," Groppel writes. "You must become a Corporate
Athlete, which means adapting the training mentality of elite,
high-performance athletes." His program is hardly "a
quick fix," Groppel admits, but rather a demanding (albeit
versatile) and multifaceted process with explicit short- and
long-term guidelines. This book is for anyone, corporate or
otherwise, looking to add balance to an otherwise stressful and
hectic work life. |
