Rezensionen

I recommend Lead Like Julius Caesar. He left us the masterpiece that is the Rome of the ancient world. The book is profoundly inspiring, and by drawing on the past and comparing it to the present, it allows us to see fundamental aspects of leadership. I am recommending it to my clients and anyone else with an interest in getting to the heart of leadership. (Charles Spinosa, goodreads.com, November 4, 2025)

This book is still thought-provoking and will be of interest for those wanting a unique take on Caesar. (Bungaku Shoujo, goodreads.com, October 28, 2025)

Lead Like Julius Caesar represents something increasingly rare: a business book of intellectual substance, written by someone qualified to bridge the 2,000-year gap between Caesar's world and our own. Leadership lessons derived from shallow historical readings often collapse under scrutiny. But when a historian who has dedicated years to understanding the political, military, and social dynamics of Caesar's world also possesses the vocabulary and frameworks of modern leadership development, the resulting insights carry genuine weight.
