Reviews
"Tom Gordon has skillfully compiled a treasure trove of useful leadership lessons in his very compelling narrative. A must read for those focused on becoming better leaders and team builders!" --Lt. Gen. Mike Dana, USMC (Ret.), former deputy commandant, Installations and Logistics, " Marine Maxims by Col. Thomas Gordon (Ret.) is a must read.... This book is the 'green book' of all the invaluable advice mentors bestow and a Marine leader's life lessons learned over a career packaged in an approachable way... The tools and advice Col. Gordon conveys in this book transcend individual leadership styles or types of command." --Marine Corps Gazette, "A great field guide of character and competence; the key components of trust and the core of leadership. A compilation of experiences to help shape your own. Tom sees life as an opportunity to learn and we should take advantage of it." --Rear Adm. Brian Brakk, former commander Navy Expeditionary Combat Command, "After over 30 years in uniform, I hadn't expected to learn something new about leadership from a book - but Tom Gordon proved me wrong. His engaging style brings to life a well-covered topic with insights that are extraordinarily perceptive and informative. If you are going to read one book on the topic of leadership - this is it." --Col. Andy Milburn, USMC (Ret.), former commander, Marine Raider Regiment, author When the Tempest Gathers: From Mogadishu to the Fight Against ISIS, a Marine Special Operations Commander at War, "From his first days as a Citadel cadet and during his thirty years of active Marine service, Colonel Gordon studied great leaders and great leadership in order to record best principals, best practices, and best publications. But Colonel Gordon is not just a scholar of leadership but an outstanding practitioner as well. He has used those observations he recorded to great effect as he led Marines in war and peace; during training and operations; and with high achievers and leadership challenges alike at all levels of the Corps. Now he has distilled thirty plus years of study into 50 lessons of leadership applicable to all leaders, military and civilian, who desire to maximize their skills at 'getting things done though people'. A true textbook for all leaders or those who hope to be." --Lt. Gen. Richard P. Mills, USMC (Ret), president and chief executive officer Marine Corps University Foundation, former Commander, Marine Forces Reserve, " Marine Maxims ... provides readers with a thought-provoking narrative to self-analyse and select items from in order to enable/enact professional development." --Australian Naval Institute, " Marine Maxims is an exceptional guidebook for Marine leaders at any level and, with little modification, to military leaders in any branch of service. Today's service members stand to learn much from his hard-earned wisdom." --Proceedings, "Brilliantly useful! Fifty seemingly simple ideas of enormous potential explained for ease of implementation. These maxims outline everything a slated commander needs to consider prior to taking charge. This is not another book on leadership theory. Colonel Gordon turns theory into practice with leadership maxims that can be applied with great effect and has brilliantly captured it all in a book to be used and never be relegated to a shelf. An 'aha!' on every page, this compendium of distilled leadership truths can be applied by commanders at all levels. This is an absolute must read for any first time commander." --Lt. Gen. David Beydler, USMC (Ret.), former commander, Marine Forces Central Command and II Marine Expeditionary Force, " Marine Maxims is filled with incredibly useful leadership lessons that could enlighten military leaders at all levels. Col. Gordon not only presents valuable lessons in leadership but does so in a format that will continue to drive self-development. Col. Gordon must be commended for his dedication to leadership and education. The lessons contained within this book and his approach to improving his skills and abilities undoubtedly improved the U.S. Marine Corps. As his book continues to spread within the military community, there's little doubt that this warrior-scholar will continue to help support and improve the leadership of the US Military well into the future." --Small Wars Journal, "If you are looking for excellent synopses of aspects of leadership, chapters with useful bullet points and references for future explorations of each section's ideas, this book is a must-have. Gordon has done an outstanding job of presenting ideas clearly and summarizing key points in ways that can be used for personal benefit as well as in guiding others in journeys to become better leaders." --The Strategy Bridge, "Retired U.S. Marine Corps Col. Thomas Gordon provides a readily accessible and thoughtful handbook for leaders at all levels based on fifty leadership principles, often hard-won, he has learned over thirty years--first as a cadet at the Citadel and then throughout his career as a Marine armor officer and senior leader." --Modern War Institute, "Colonel Gordon has paid it forward with this compilation of leadership lessons. Every leader needs stories to share, you never want to miss the opportunity to talk about those life lessons. Col Gordon provides a source for every leader to turn to. A good companion to William J Bennett's The Book of Virtues ." --Lt. Gen. John Toolan, USMC (Ret.), former commander, Marine Forces Pacific and I Marine Expeditionary Force
