No Excuse Leadership was purchased because I was in the midst of setting up and delivering leadership training to a potential client from the defense forces of my nation.
I was quite let-down. I think those from a military and US back-ground would fully appreciate this book.
I was looking for a book which would share more explicitly the lessons of leadership from within an army or military context. In this respect, Be, Know, Do from Francis Hesselbein & General Shiseki is a much better read.

As a Leadership Instructor and former Ranger Instructor, I whole-heartedly endorse this book! Brace Barber has done a magnificent job of communicating the essence of leadership with his stories.
The book is a delight to read, brings back great memories for us that have attended Ranger School, and serves as a great preparation for those getting ready to go. Since Leadership is universal, civilians can take away many great leadership fundamentals and immediately put them to use as well.
I have put this book on my Officer’s and NCO’s recommended reading list. You should put it on yours if you haven’t read it yet.
RLTW!!

Buy this book to a friend or relative, that needs that little motivation to improve your life quality without excuses. Regardless of your life, financial condition , military or not. These principles are universal. Thank, Brace.

I bought this book for my son who is going in to the Army in a few months. He read the book and found a lot of useful information in it. He’s glad that he read it and has gone back through it a 2nd time.

I have never read a book that has inspired me more.
I was in the Army for 8yrs and was a paratrooper, this book has inspired me too the point that i have re-entered the Army at 33
in hopes of becoming a special forces soldier. I enjoyed reading about the passion, drive, and comradery that the elite rangers and ranger battalion’s share.
