Good solid advice from an intelligent source April 18, 2008
Parcells presents a fair amount of practical advice in this book that has shaped his philosophy of coaching and assessing personnel. This should come as little surprise considering Parcells has always been known as one of the more intelligent coaches as well as an incessant motivator.
Finding a Way to Win could have been even better had we seen more of the famous wit that Parcells always displayed during interviews. He has the ability to think very quickly on his feet and respond to near any personal attack with a comedic retort. Unfortunately, while solid on advice, this book did not have this sense of charm. Without question, however, Parcells delivers on content and one would be wise to follow the advice given.
 Parcells Knows Football March 22, 2007
This is a fantastic book if you want to know how to manage a football team, or even motivate a business team. Bill Parcells has obviously never worked in the business world, though, because his examples relating football to business were very weak and not helpful for use in the office. It is an enjoyable read, however.

Business and not football May 18, 2000
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This was more of a business and preparing for the battle type of book than a book about football. It was an alright book to read, but unless you are looking for some direction or you really like Bill Parcells, then I would not purchase this book.
A Great Book For Business Using Football as a Metaphor December 3, 1999
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have read many motivational books by coaches and athletes, and I found this to be one of the best. This is not an "ego stroking vehicle" like I find many books by athletes/coaches to be. It has fundamentally sound career and personal advice using football situations to illustrate all of his points. It is a quick read that you will enjoy and benefit from.
