Find quick answers about You Are the Flag, the companion workbook, launch availability, direct support, bulk orders, media requests, and bringing the message to your team or organization.
What is You Are the Flag about?
You Are the Flag is a leadership book about representation, restraint under pressure, trust, standards, and the lived experience of authority.
It challenges leaders to examine whether their conduct truly represents the ideals they claim to defend.
Is this book only for military leaders?
No. The book carries strong military leadership credibility, but the message applies to anyone who leads others: military leaders, business leaders, coaches, mentors, ministry leaders, parents, families, educators, and organizational leaders.
What is the relationship between the book and the workbook?
The book confronts the leadership mirror. The workbook helps leaders respond.
The workbook includes reflection prompts, coaching questions, self-assessments, leadership audits, action steps, and the A.C.T. framework: Apply, Commit, Teach.
When does the book launch?
