'Official Review: Violent Leadership by Wesley Middleton' is a useful introduction to the book. It is a nice way to learn the new concept of violent leadership! The review very well explains the meaning of the term 'violent leadership'. I found the ending of the review amusing!

Not really my type of book but it is interesting how it describes being a violent leader as a positive energetic pursuit of purpose and success. Congratulations on making BOTD.

The title os definitely misleading. I can see the creativeness in turning the word that's is usually associated with something bad like "violent" and giving it a positive meaning. The lessons taught in this is not ones I need to learn but i do hope ota example can help someone who needs it. Congratulations on BOTD.

I would enjoy this information on current business practices, particularly in regards to the millennials and how to keep them engaged. His experience on failures and success will be also a good read. Thanks for the wonderful review.

In the book "Violent Leadership," the author discussed his proven methods of leadership to achieve success, and to the core of his leadership methods is the idea of being proactive to achieve the goals with passion, energy, and strength. Moreover, being proactive is an effective habit to achieve higher success.

I have been running my own little dog sitting business, so I think that it would be beneficial to read this book. It would add inspiration for sure.

The title captured my attention, and I thought this is a book about dictatorship. I'm intrigued that the author dishes out business advice with an emphasis on disruptive innovation. My take home from this is that a good leader sets the tone of the organization.

Based on the review I will not like this book. I do not have any interest in learning about leadership or the skills needed to be a leader. I also dislike reading books with religious content. I will pass on reading this book.

I sampled the book on Amazon. Violent Leadership, as the name suggests is about powerful leadership which dares to go for the change. Wesley Middleton, a businessman shares his experience and guiding-tips through this book. As mentioned in the review by Kandscreeley, this book is highly recommended to you if you own a business or even if you aren't quite satisfied with your life in the business world. Cheers! :)

Tbh, when I first saw the title of this book, I thought it was a booked based on a struggle for freedom and detachment from oppression. But after the review, I found it interesting and that it talked about channeling negative energy (inner violence) in a postive way into creating good products. It's a nice book. Kudos!!!
