How close to my own Military and overall life we are, but separate by Ranks.

WOW, We are taking on a challenge when we become Leadership roles. I am an Enlisted Veteran Permanent and Totally disabled and a First responder retired medically from my life of adventure. My life took a turn that allows me to experience the same Leadership reresponsibilities of someone NOT me. I needed a Mentorship. I got this boot and confirmed I was in the right hands when my Friendships allows me to meet Greater men Like Mooch, when I told him I was reading your Book he said good, you will need to be that leader. Thank you Sir, From Brent A. "Towbie " McCrobie. your favorite Hornet mech and VFA-106 Gladiator.

Looked forward to my commute and my next listen.

It was all very relevant to me as a former Naval Officer, and the Dad of a newly winged Super Hornet pilot for the U.S. Navy.

Loved your book.

As the mother of a navel officer I could follow your path and it tickled my funny bones every time you gave a book list. I must have read more then half. I think your wife should write her other side of the coin for the young partners of highly successful people. I fell it my role to jump in as much as I could when my son is deployed or retaining to take a command. Thank you for your service and for writing this book. I got the recommendation to read your book from a Boy Scout board member who heard you speak. Now I must convince my son to MAKE time to listen before he takes over his new command!!

Lessons hard learned, and well told

Picked this up on a whim based on an Audible suggestion. I don't regret a minute of it.

A strong focus on servant leadership with perspective.

His humility is enviable.

I have a 4 star on performance, because he is not a professional audio book narrator, but honestly with books like this I prefer to hear from the person.

Outstanding!!

I've worked with many exceptional leaders throughout my Navy career, but none have left as profound an impact as Mike Manazir. Having served under his command aboard the USS Nimitz, I can confidently say that he is a remarkable leader and a true mentor who shaped my career and the careers of countless others. His leadership style—rooted in empathy, accountability, and trust—created one of the most elite teams I've ever been a part of.

Mike's book, Learn How to Lead to Win, is a must-read for anyone looking to understand what it means to be an effective leader. Through 33 powerful stories and leadership lessons, Mike distills what it takes to lead high-performing teams, whether in the military or any other field. His insights are not just theoretical; they are drawn from real-life experiences.

One of the key takeaways from this book is Mike’s emphasis on leading from the heart. He understood that knowing your people—genuinely understanding their strengths, challenges, and motivations—builds trust and cohesion within a team. This approach was evident during my time on Nimitz.

The lessons I learned under Mike’s command continue to guide me today, and his book has only reinforced those principles. Whether you're a seasoned leader or just starting your journey, Learn How to Lead to Win offers invaluable lessons on resilience, vision, and the power of human connection.

Thank you, Mike Manazir, for your service and mentorship and for sharing your wisdom with the world through this incredible book. I will return to it time and time again as I continue my own leadership journey.
