This book is dedicated to my wife, Sharlene, and our children, JD and Taylor; to my 1980 U.S. Olympic teammates; to all my hockey coaches, especially Herb Brooks, Jack Parker, and Craig Patrick; to my business and life mentors, Dan Pratt, Paul Haley, Dave Brandon, and Jon Luther; and to the Gold Medal Strategies team.

Thank you, all of you, for your love and friendship and support – and for pulling greatness out of me.

To Jeanette: Thanks for bringing a championship mindset to our family. You are my Gold Medal.
