Non-Fiction Memoir
With his trademark charm and eloquence, Greg Norman reveals
the secrets behind his myriad achievements, tracing his
journey from Queensland, Australia, to the World Golf Hall
of Fame to chairman and CEO of a global business. Since the days in 1975 when he made thirtyeight dollars a
week working as a trainee, Norman has won ninety-one
professional tournaments around the world, including two
British Opens and twenty U.S. PGA Tour titles, and he held
the No. 1 World Ranking for an astonishing 331 weeks. Norman has brought the same competitive fire to the
boardroom, building a business that reflects the diversity
of his interests and the power of his brand. Norman has done
something very few professional athletes have ever managed
-- he has transcended the sport that made him famous. As head of Great White Shark Enterprises, Norman presides
over a multimillion-dollar empire that ranges from golf
course design to real estate to apparel to wine. An astute
businessman with unmatched desire and drive, he has an
unerring instinct for knowing what will work and what won't.
He has combined a hands-on approach with an overall
strategic vision to produce an internationally recognized
and respected brand. In these pages, Norman illustrates the principles that are
at the core of his successes and offers readers concrete
advice for applying their own talents to successfully play
both the "front nine" and the "back nine" of life.
Practical, engaging, and incisive, The Way of the Shark
shares the lessons Greg Norman has learned both on the
course and off, demonstrating how anyone, at any stage of
his or her career, can be a champion.
