Details

Synopsis In this graphically rich memoir and fanbook, NBA legend Michael Jordan reflects on his long basketball career, his lucrative business ventures, and the ways he stays busy in retirement. He credits his family as the source of his inspiration and drive, and he comments affectionately about his father--and advisor--to whom he was especially close. Michael's comments are enriched on almost every page by photos of him on and off the court, as well as by insightful quotes from his family, inner circle, and business partners, including his mom, Delores Jordan. The ubiquitous endorser of Nike sneakers and Haynes underwear has no regrets about wanting to be a winner in business and life--which, in DRIVEN FROM WITHIN, he clearly is., Michael Jordan is the rare global icon whose celebrity extends beyond his original stage and onto multiple platforms. His relentless determination produced six NBA Championships and some of the most spectacular performances in sports history, while his enduring grace and unique sense of style made him equally famous in the worlds of fashion, business, and marketing. In this book, he makes it clear that the basis for his phenomenal success came from the inside out, thanks in part to those who guided him along the way. His skill, work ethic, philosophy, personal style, competitiveness and presence have flowed from the basketball court and into every facet of his life. This is a book about the power of collaboration and teamwork, the energy generated when people combine their creativity and passion, and a fearless desire to lead.--From publisher description.
