8 Lessons in Military Leadership for Entrepreneurs

By: Robert T. Kiyosaki

Narrated by: Tim Wheeler

Robert Kiyosaki's new audiobook 8 Lessons in Military Leadership for Entrepreneurs draws from his years at the Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point and his service in the United Sates Marine Corps. With compelling stories and examples and an engaging way of comparing and contrasting two very different cultures and value systems, Robert shares the challenges he faced in transitioning to civilian life: where chain of command and team-over-self - once so black and white - were muddy and distorted. "Permission to speak freely, sir?" Count on it. This is Robert Kiyosaki - and he does just that, in the forthright and no-nonsense style that listeners have come to expect and appreciate.

From Robert's perspective, military training shapes lives and supports entrepreneurship. The training, discipline, and leadership skills taught in the military can be leveraged for huge success in the civilian world of business.

Highlights of 8 Lessons in Military Leadership for Entrepreneurs include sections on Mission and Team, Discipline, Respect, Authority, Speed, the Power of Connectivity, Leaders as Teachers, and Sales and Leadership.

wonderful book for the entrepreneur

I've loved this guy since I first read rich dad poor Dad about 20 years ago. He hasn't let me down yet.

a great read

Very excellent and much needed. When I came across characteristics I possessed even a little bit it was a different kind of inspiration.

Great book for this civilian

I think Robert Kiyosaki has a gift for storytelling and inspiring. He discusses how important leadership is in the military and in a war zone, and draws parallels to the adversity entrepreneurs face in business. I myself having absolutely no experience in the military got a better idea of the benefits one might get from having the disciplene of a marine. But more than that he discusses the qualities that he had found inspiring in his leaders, and to some extent how to inspire others in life and in business.
Unfortunately it sounds like it's read by a robot, but you get used to that after the first few chapters.

Great business book

Classic like always. This book was very good with great examples to learn how to became a good leader. I read this book first time in hungarian.

Believe

I appreciate the breakdown of the military lessons and how they can serve you in entrepreneurship. I enjoy the action steps and exercises, I look forward to the journey.
