Read Before Leading: 20 Essential Leadership Lessons to Help You Succeed and Avoid Failure

This isn't your typical leadership book!

In Read Before Leading, I share unfiltered stories from my experience as a fire chief, where I quickly learned that effective leadership isn't just about success-it's about embracing failure, learning from mistakes, and returning stronger. This book doesn't sugarcoat the challenges leaders face; it underscores the vital importance of accountability and owning both wins and setbacks.

If you're looking for a leadership guide that's raw, real, and focused on navigating adversity, this is it. The lessons I've learned-through both success and failure-will help you avoid common pitfalls and guide you to becoming the leader you aspire to be.

Packed with real-world strategies, this book is designed to drive your organization forward and inspire lasting growth within your team. Leadership is a journey of strength and humility, and Read Before Leading equips you with the essential tools to succeed.
