The Companion Workbook
Leadership Reflection and Coaching Workbook
Apply. Commit. Teach.
The You Are the Flag workbook was created to help leaders move from reading the message to living the standard.
Through guided reflection, coaching prompts, self-assessments, leadership audits, and action steps, this companion resource helps readers examine what their presence teaches, what their patterns permit, and what their example makes believable.
What’s Inside the Workbook
A practical path from reflection to action.
The workbook was built to help leaders slow down, examine their patterns, and move from agreement to application. It is designed for personal reflection, coaching conversations, leadership development, team discussion, and guided study.
Chapter-by-Chapter Reflection
Each section helps readers process the message of the book with guided prompts, personal examination, and practical leadership application.
Leadership Self-Assessments
Leaders examine tone, correction, restraint, consistency, trust, authority, and the residue their leadership leaves behind.
Coaching Questions
Purpose-built questions help leaders move beyond surface answers and engage the deeper work of ownership, growth, and correction.
Leadership Audits
Readers identify where their conduct aligns with the standard and where their patterns may be weakening trust or clarity.
Action Steps
Each section moves the reader toward visible application, not just internal agreement or leadership theory.
30-Day A.C.T. Plan
A focused leadership plan built around Apply, Commit, and Teach so the message becomes a pattern, not just a moment.
The book confronts what leadership represents. The workbook helps leaders examine, apply, and teach that standard.
Designed to help leaders examine
- What their presence teaches
- What their patterns permit
- How their correction is experienced
- Where trust is strengthened or weakened
- What their example makes believable
- How to turn reflection into action
The A.C.T. Framework
Apply. Commit. Teach.
The workbook is built around a simple leadership movement: take the message from the page, commit it to your pattern of leadership, and teach it through your example and influence.
Apply
Application moves leadership from concept to conduct. This is where the reader identifies what the chapter requires of them in real life.
- What must I do differently?
- Where does my conduct need alignment?
- What leadership habit needs immediate attention?
Commit
Commitment turns reflection into ownership. This is where the leader names the standard they will practice, protect, and make visible.
- What standard am I committing to?
- What pattern must I stop permitting?
- How will I measure visible change?
Teach
Teaching moves the lesson beyond the individual. This is where leaders use their example, conversations, and influence to develop others.
- Who needs this lesson from me?
- How can I model the standard clearly?
- What conversation do I need to lead?
Reflection becomes leadership when it changes what people experience through you.
Read it. Reflect on it. Put it in motion.
The A.C.T. framework can be used by individual readers, coaching clients, professional military education groups, leadership teams, ministry leaders, parents, and organizations that want the book to become more than a message — they want it to become a standard.

The workbook can be used by individuals, teams, coaches, military units, ministry leaders, and organizations that want to move from reflection to action.
