I would have liked more detail about interventions and processes implemented but this book is informative. Instead, it is a disarmingly honest and charming account of the joys and challenges of working in a difficult but intensely rewarding school community. Seeing how Drew and his team worked with each other with the challenges they face whilst keeping the kids at the forefront of everything kept me watching.Drew’s methods have been proven to empower individuals and teams to exceed in this ever-changing business world.

Having worked with Drew on a range of different projects, I always find myself energised by his positive approach to business, leadership and life in general. It did teach me a few new things about leadership and reinforced what I already knew about behaviour of kids and adults and how important listening is.

Drew demonstrates his relentless determination and passion to improve the community of Little Hulton in an inspiring and entertaining tale.

Harrop Fold was placed into special measures in October 2018 with Ofsted finding that "the school is failing its pupils", as well as "considerable uncertainty concerning its leadership". It is easy to read and contains a few inspirational quotes that aren't the usual cheesy ones found in this type of book.

Applying his expertise in elite-level sports and education to the business world, Drew has become a leading high-performance and leadership expert, highly sought after by prominent organisations such as LLOYDS Bank, Allianz, Rolls Royce, BMW, and Crawford to motivate and empower teams and individuals. I asked Drew to come and speak at a global forum I was organising, having been really engaged watching him speak previously. But whilst the Educating Greater Manchester TV show is one of the best things I've seen this year, Drew Povey's book is even better. The examples he is able to draw upon really bring it to life and you can see how this works for everybody, not just great sports teams or big businesses.In his books, he explores mindset, charisma, leadership and positivity, inspiring readers to make positive changes in their lives. A highly distinguished coach, for almost two decades, Drew served as a Leadership Development Coach for the infamous Warrington Wolves, helping them substantially improve their ranking in the Super League.
