Praise for
Allan Bonner's
Wounded Leaders
Good leadership is the glue that bonds a successful organization into a cohesive whole, from top to bottom. And good leadership, as capably described by Allan Bonner in this book, is not something that you're born with; it is a quality that successful leaders-civilian and military-have learned, developed, nurtured and applied to the best advantage and to the betterment of the organizations to which they have dedicated themselves. Those who would aspire to become capable and respected leaders have much to learn from those who have succeeded, but they also have much to learn from this book. In particular, they will benefit significantly from the wise counsel that it offers on various types of leadership and the weight of importance that it gives to listening as well as providing guidance and positive influence. Indeed, and in my experience, the best leaders are those that have mastered the art of communication-both ways.

"Forceful, insightful and practical...
and, on top of that, a very good read."

"...Allan Bonner applies a lifetime of astute observation, involvement, and critical, scholarly thinking to the very practical matter of why businesses fail to meet their goals."
Dr. Joseph C. Braun

"The amalgamation of modern western psychology and ancient eastern martial arts philosophy has been the cornerstone of the curriculum I have promoted for many years. Again I turn with special trust and confidence to Dr. Allan Bonner and this, his latest work, which will serve as an inspiration to me, and an instalment to my own research and reference library."
Detective James Shanahan
Police Academy City of New York
"Is morality a necessary part of leadership? Should a leader be hard-driving? With more and more regions and countries joining the still evolving global market... the rules will change."
