Reviews
“Jason captures the true essence of the Driven Elite, which is reflected in his own heart that he puts into every endeavor he’s engaged in throughout his life. Often the designated warriors (the SEALs and First Responders) are not explored nor understood from an emotional point of view, even being portrayed as emotionless; nothing could be farther from the truth. Jason’s exploration of leadership under this collaborative human lens is brilliant. The simple, yet elegant, takes always are priceless.”
-– Doug Brackmann, PhD, author of DrivenReviews
“I had the privilege of working with Jason while on an investigation assignment conducted by the ATF National Response Team. Jason’s leadership skills were on full display during this assignment, and Chaos and Pain reflects his understanding of the qualities needed for effective leadership. His talent as a writer is equal to his skills as a Special Agent. Readers will not be disappointed in this book.”
-– Dave True, Retired ATF Special Agent, Team Leader of the Midwest ATF National Response Team, and published True Crime authorReviews
“Dr. Wick’s combined experience leading law enforcement teams in complex investigations and his research findings interviewing myself and other Navy SEALs, deployed in combat, make this leadership book a must read! The content specifies the preferred leadership approach coupled with the individual traits the best teammates must possess.”
