Carlo Ancelotti: Quiet Leadership Winning Hearts, Minds and Matches

Carlo Ancelotti is one of the greatest managers of all time, with five Champions League titles to his name. Yet his approach could not be further from the aggressive theatricals favored by many of his rivals. His understated style has earned him the fierce loyalty of players like David Beckham, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, and Cristiano Ronaldo. In Quiet Leadership, Ancelotti reveals the full, riveting story of his managerial career—his methods, mentors, mistakes, and triumphs—and takes us inside the dressing room to trace the characters, challenges, and decisions that have shaped him. The result is both a scintillating memoir and a rare insight into the business of leadership.

Carlo Ancelotti has won the Champions League a record five times—twice as a player and three times as a manager. He has coached clubs including Parma, Juventus, AC Milan, Real Madrid, and Chelsea (winning the "Double" in 2010). He has won titles in every country in which he has managed and is entering his first season as manager for Bayern Munich.
