Publisher's summary

Using the greatest material from his popular Blog Maverick, Cuban has collected and updated his postings on business and life to provide a catalog of insider knowledge on what it takes to become a thriving entrepreneur. He tells his own rags-to-riches story of how he went from selling powdered milk and sleeping on friends' couches to owning his own company and becoming a multibillion-dollar success story. His unconventional yet highly effective ideas on how to build a successful business offer entrepreneurs at any stage of their careers a huge edge over their competitors.

Short and precise.

Motivational words from a man who knows what he's talking about. If you are starting a business or you are developing one, this is worth a listen.

Definetly worth 2 hours of your life

What did you love best about How to Win at the Sport of Business?

I love the fact that Mark was just a normal guy who turned it around to become a billionaire.

When he got fired for not being at his place of employment while he was closing on a deal. It's what started his Maverick career.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Edge plus effort equals success

I got so much out of this and it is deceptively simple. If I need to emulate anybody's recipe for success, it would be Mark Cuban. I can identify with his down to earth shortcomings. We are all human. We all make mistakes. It's how we learn from those mistakes that separates us from our competition. Mark Cuban is the man. I'm starting the book over again. And it may not be the last time I listen to it. Thank you Mark!
