Why Brilliant Leadership Embraces the Rule of 1 Percent
Make a major improvement by leveraging lots of small, easy wins.
It's really hard to make massive gains in skill and performance and talent, especially overnight. But it's fairly easy to make small changes every day.

One core element was strategy. Another was human performance--obviously on the bike, but also in terms of leveraging behavioral psychology and optimizing the "work" environment.
The third was continuous improvement, or what Brailsford called the "aggregate of marginal gains." His plan was to break down each individual component that could go into making a world-class cyclist and cycling team, and improve each of those elements by 1 percent.
