Sir Alex Ferguson has agreed to write another book, which will be released in October.
"Leading" will investigate his theories on leadership and his management during his long and successful career, which began in Scotland and continued with 26 years at Manchester United.
Ferguson, 73, has already published one book since his 2013 retirement and publishers Hodder & Stoughton said "The Autobiography" was the best-selling non-fiction hardback since records began after more than 900,000 copies were purchased.
"Leading" will concentrate on some of Ferguson's work at the Harvard Business School and will be written in collaboration with Sir Michael Moritz, a venture capitalist and author.
Ferguson said: "Since stepping into retirement I have had the opportunity to reflect on my time as a football manager, and to consider the reasons behind my success through personal recollections, conversations with Mike Moritz and my role at Harvard Business School.
"It has been a new experience for me to be looking into the past rather than planning for the future, but one that I have found enjoyable and rewarding.
"The process behind creating this book began many years ago following my first meeting with Mike, which immediately created a mutual respect for each other's achievements.
"Over the past year, we have spent many hours together as we have worked our way through my life in order to draw out and discuss the key philosophies I applied during my career.
"I have been delighted by Mike's approach and the quality of his work, I am sure the readers will appreciate what he has brought to the page. I could not have had a better partner for this project."
Jamie Hodder-Williams of Hodder & Stoughton added: ""Sir Alex Ferguson is an inspirational leader, and millions across the world want to know the secrets of his success.
"For this new book, Leading, Sir Alex has collaborated with one of the most successful investors of recent times, Sir Michael Moritz, and together, they have written a hugely entertaining book, packed with footballing anecdotes that illuminate Sir Alex's leadership style."
Ferguson, who won 13 Premier League titles and two European Cups at Old Trafford, has also written a series of other books, including a previous autobiography, "Managing My Life," in 1999.
