McCormack died in 2003, but his legacy and business philosophy live on. What They Can't Teach You at Harvard Business School celebrates his genius with a collection of new street smarts based on interviews with the people who knew, worked with and were influenced by him - colleagues, clients and competitors alike.

Learn from the outside-the-box thinking that encouraged a nervous Wimbledon committee to sign up to IMG-style merchandising; why it pays to hold your nerve when you reach a negotiating impasse; how the rituals and routines of the sporting world can work in business too and even how re-using incoming paperclips or keeping 3x5 notecards to hand can contribute to success.

Recognizing that every manager must have a set of core beliefs, in this third installment of business pioneer Mark H. McCormack's remarkable new series the "inventor" of sports management shares the personal principles for success that he has developed after many years in the trenches.Whether it is working harder than everyone else; staying calm in a crisis; not interfering in a situation unless you can add value; showing people once, then letting them do it on their own; or being ruthless about some things, but not everything, McCormack sets forth advice that will help readers quickly develop a set of management principles that work for them. Once those principles are set in motion, McCormack details some of the finer points that managers must master as they ascend the corporate pyramid, such as why slower decisions are better than quick ones, how to resist organizational pressures that constantly tempt you to decide quickly, how to spot talent, and how to hire, nurture, and promote that talent so that it pays off for you rather than the competition.

This is the 37th edition in Mark H. McCormack's annual series, The World Of Professional Golf 2003. The year in golf for 2002 is fully chronicled with chapters on each of the major championships and on each of the world's tours, including seniors and women. There are scoring summaries from every professional tournament playied in the world during the year, detailed information on the World Ranking and - exclusive to this publication - the World Money Lists. Tiger Woods continued to add to his record as he sought to become the first ever to win all four professional major championships in the same year. He won the first two in the Masters Tournament and then with a wire-to-wire victory in the U.S. Open Championship, but he faltered in the wind and rain of the British Open Championship. Ernie Els went on to claim that title, and in the year's final major, the PGA Championship, little-known Rich Beem held off Woods by one stroke. Nevertheless, Woods led the U.S. PGA Tou for the fourth consecutive year and for the fifth time in six years. Going into October, Woods had five victories for the year on the PGA Tour and six overall. Phil Mickelson, the runner-up to Woods in the U.S. Open, also was second on the PGA Tour and second on the World Ranking. He had two victories for the year. Two South Africans, Els and Retief Goosen, were ranked third and fourth in the world, and Goosen led the European Tour money list for the second year in a row. Young Spaniard Sergio Garcia ranked fifth. Other headliners of the year included the victory by Europe, led by captain Sam Torrance and star of the match Colin Montgomerie, over the United States in the Ryder Cup. But no one won more than Annika Sorenstam, who dominated women's golf with nine LPGA wins, and 11 worldwide, going into October.
