Leadership Books

Leadership isn’t about titles... it’s about impact.
Leading with Purpose is your guide to becoming the kind of leader people want to follow. This book isn’t theory or fluff,  it’s built from real-world leadership in the trenches, leading teams, building culture, and creating purpose-driven success.

Kevin Hess shares his powerful story of transformation, from battling through adversity to discovering that true leadership starts within. With raw honesty and practical tools, this book will help you lead with clarity, confidence, and conviction.

Every chapter challenges you to stop managing and start leading... to find your why, empower your people, and lead with heart and direction.

Because when you lead with purpose, you don’t just build a business — you build a legacy.

Available in Hard Copy, Paperback, Audiobook from Audible, and Kindle.

Real leadership doesn’t happen in boardrooms... it’s built in the trenches.
Leading with Grit is a rallying cry for every leader who knows what it means to grind, sweat, and lead from the front. This book cuts through the corporate buzzwords and gets straight to the truth: leadership takes courage, consistency, and an unshakable commitment to your people.

Kevin Hess shares hard-earned lessons from years of leading blue-collar teams, turning adversity into advantage and setbacks into strength. With stories, strategies, and practical tools, he shows you how to build leaders at every level — and create a culture that thrives under pressure.

Leading with Grit is for those who refuse to quit, who lead with their boots on the ground, and who know that true strength comes from showing up... every damn day.

Because in leadership, grit isn’t optional — it’s everything.
