Powerful Leadership Wisdom for Women & Men Alike

Jamie Moraga’s REVERED: The Power of Female Leadership applies to both women and men in leadership positions and is not limited to CEOs. Much like A Message to Garcia - a book once given to every Midshipman at the U.S. Naval Academy in the 1960s, which highlighted determination, perseverance, and mission focus - REVERED is a modern leadership essential. It is well-written, thoughtfully organized, and reflects vital leadership qualities such as purpose, resilience, and drive.

The stories within REVERED don’t just inspire - they instruct. Drawing from the real-world experiences of 18 accomplished female CEOs including the author, the book distills complex leadership journeys into clear, actionable principles relevant across industries. Whether leading a military unit, launching a business, or managing a team, readers will find value in its lessons. This is a book that should be included in college leadership courses - and deserves a place on every leader’s shelf.

Revered stands out because it isn’t theory. Jamie Moraga brings together women who have built companies, led teams, navigated bias, managed setbacks, and made the kinds of decisions you only understand once you’re in the chair yourself.

What I found most valuable is how the book walks through every stage of leadership — launching a business, scaling it, managing people, handling doubt, planning succession, and deciding what comes next. Each leader shares not just what happened, but what they would tell someone coming up behind them.

The experience and advice on the page would be helpful for those running a small business, or stepping into a senior role. This book offers real-world insight that makes the challenges feel—if not easier—at least navigable with more clarity and confidence.
