Alex Ferguson book reviews: what we can learn from 'Leading'

Fergie's new book offers tantalising glimpses of his 26-year reign at Manchester United

Sir Alex Ferguson

Former Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson has published his latest book, Leading, about the art of management. The book was written in conjunction with the Welsh venture capitalist Michael Moritz.

It is billed as "an inspirational guide to great leadership" rather than an orthodox football memoir. However, the Independent notes that "you are left wondering whether it might just be a step too far to try to force Ferguson's blend of ruthlessness and paternalism into the oft-bloodless theories on modern corporate success".
