Anything But Ordinary

Episode 102 - Robert Evangelista

Robert was a manager at General Motors who took over coaching an inner-city youth hockey team in Detroit.  Robert led the Detroit Rockies, a Midget AA hockey team comprised of 15 African-American players, to victory in the Can/Am Challenge Cup in Lake Placid, N.Y. The Rockies beat Cape Cod, Mass. 7-1, in the title game.  The Rockies "are the only all-black" hockey team to compete at this level of competition ever in the history of the sport.  Robert took his experience of coaching the Rockies and incorporated that into the book, The Business of Winning, where he takes athletic coaching techniques and applies them to managing business.  Robert recently left General Motors to pursue speaking, consulting and writing full time.
