Dungy will sign books in New Jersey, Indiana, and Florida during his two-week tour
CAROL STREAM, ILL. – Tyndale House Publishers (@tyndalehouse) has announced that Tony Dungy, Pro Football Hall of Fame coach, football commentator, and #1 New York Times bestselling author, will kick off a national tour on Tuesday, January 22, to promote his new book, The Soul of a Team, which he wrote with Nathan Whitaker. The Soul of a Team (Tyndale House Publishers, $26.99, hardcover, 978-1-4964-1376-5) is Dungy’s seventeenth book, which includes ten children’s books he co-authored with his wife, Lauren. In addition to eight book signings, Dungy is scheduled to make national media appearances on NBC’s Today and FOX News’s The Story with Martha MacCallum, among others.
As a former Super Bowl–winning coach, Dungy is an expert at building and bringing out the best in a team. Drawing on his experiences from years of coaching and working with other leaders, this football fable lays out four essential principles practiced by truly effective teams. Telling the story of a fictional NFL team looking for a turnaround, The Soul of a Team not only identifies some of the most common issues that hold a team back but also lays out a game plan for winning teamwork. Tony’s principles can be applied to any team, whether it relates to business, sports, or families. The book includes a bonus group-discussion guide.
