Success isn't a linear path. There are unplanned twists and turns, soaring highs and devastating lows. But through it all, there are certain traits that set the successful apart from the rest of the pack... In his first book, former professional rugby player turned business leadership coach, Beau Robinson, delivers a fresh perspective on what it takes to find success - in business and in life. Beau tells his story - from crisis to comeback - while delivering practical lessons on mindset, goal setting and absolute resilience in the face of adversity. He argues that successful people have 13 key characteristics in common, and guides the reader through exercises to make sure they make the most of them. Most importantly, he argues that our careers and businesses are just a vehicle for a good life, not the other way around. 'In the Arena' is the culmination of an often turbulent yet successful sporting career, a lifetime's worth of lessons, and intensive study in business and mindset. Whether you're at the start of your journey or on the top of the mountain, every reader can benefit from Beau's honesty, perspective and good humour.
