“Sleek as a wide receiver racing toward the end zone… [The Right Call is] packed with sophisticated reportage and epigrammatic insights that deliver on the promise of the subtitle…. [S]harp insights and intriguing anecdotes that fill the book prompt valuable reflection on one’s own performance under pressure and track record of decision-making. And it’s a joy to read.”
—Wall Street Journal“Wide-ranging psychological inspiration from a veteran Washington Post sportswriter and columnist…. Jenkins, who seems at home in every sport…draws useful lessons in leadership, self-discipline (“it’s a form of self-rule”), the aspiration to win, and, perhaps most important, the way in which the love of a game is transformational… A pleasure for self-help aficionados and buffs with an interest in the mental aspects of a variety of sports.”
—Kirkus Reviews“[The Right Call] is a masterpiece of spare, elegant prose that showcases her talent for reporting and writing while also providing a window into how the best of the best get that way. A true inspiration! I can’t recommend this book more highly.”
—William D. Cohan, New York Times bestselling author of Money and Power“Jenkins combines the excitement of sports with the insights of self-help, and reveals a new way to think about greatness. The Right Call illustrates how elite sports has become a laboratory for observing, and learning about, leadership and life.”
—Charles Duhigg, New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit and Smarter Faster Better“One of America’s greatest sports writers boils down the essential principles of the athletic mindset, and in cinematic detail, shows how we can all learn decision-making under pressure.”
—Robert Iger, New York Times bestselling author of The Ride of a Lifetime
