Finding the Puck: Leadership Lessons from One Man's Journey Through Blind Hockey - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Ice hockey has long been considered one of the most dangerous sports. It's full-contact, played at high speeds on freshly sharpened blades while chasing a small puck. Despite the physical and visual demands, ice hockey is also the only professional sport to have a blind league. 

Craig Fitzpatrick is nearly completely blind but has taught over 300 blind adults and children to play ice hockey at a competitive level. As a member of the US Blind Hockey team, he competed at the international level, studied the game under NHL trainers, and brought disability awareness to the forefront through his Try Blind Hockey program that partners with NHL teams.

Part inspirational memoir, part leadership parable, Finding the Puck traces Fitzpatrick's experience of losing his sight but finding himself once again after improbably lacing up his old skates. What follows is a journey of openness, humility, ambition, and advocacy that has served him on the ice as well as on the cutting-edge of the business world.

Readers are invited for the first time into this community of blind hockey, where resilience, trust, risk-taking, and perseverance are put to the test every day in illuminating, transformative ways.
