"Being a huge fisherman myself along with being into inspirational books this one was perfect, truly a win-win. A great read for anybody who is seeking positive changes in their life-not just within the business sector. The flow of Catching Leadership was perfect, I thought the author brought up some key advice/examples at the perfect time to relate to the reader. It gave me fresh perspective on leadership that relate to today's time-one that I needed in my life. Being a current graduate student in psychology this book was just what I needed-Michael did a fantastic job using his knowledge in the psychology field and relating it to the real world. I recommend this book for anybody who is seeking a fresh and unique perspective on leadership. This book could be the difference you need! Great Book!!"

"One of the best written leadership books I have had the pleasure to read. This book will enlighten current leaders and future leaders in today’s world. A fresh look at how leaders should take note of the world around them and around the people they lead. “Embrace the changing world we now live in or slowly become obsolete.” Michael brings a fresh new catch on looking at the aspects of leadership through his C.A.T.C.H. & Release Model. It’s Brilliant! I found myself reflecting on current and past experiences in my own life. The 12 Casting Techniques embodies all constructs of leadership dynamics. Michael ties together what most leadership book authors have never accomplished which are elements of leadership, psychology, and mindfulness to foster meaningful growth. The way the author looks at leadership from the Lures of Leadership to the Knots of Leadership to a groovy new look at coaching, Coach the Cast to the Hooks of Honor. The C.A.T.C.H. & Release Leadership Index (CARLI) is a model that all leaders and future leaders of companies and individuals should incorporate into their employees or even ones self developmental goals for years to come."

"You'll be "hooked" in the first chapter! Michael uses a great fishing analogy throughout the book to help the reader better understand leadership. You will learn tools of when to "catch" and "release" at any point in your career and life in general. This book is a really great reminder of things you may already know but need to refocus. "Catching Leadership" is not a ‘one size fits all’ book, rather you will learn that not every leader can tow the same line in their career. It will beg the question only you can answer: what path do need to take to create the most fulfilling life for yourself? I highly recommend this book for a quick read in both a personal and professional setting. “Catching Leadership” provides a lighter more tangible backdrop for anyone who is at a cross-roads or just needs help getting back on track with their goals."

"Michael is an amazing author with a charismatic knack for conveying messages which resonate with your soul. Not another leadership book with the "to-do" list but rather his approach is taking centuries old wisdom and presenting it in a way that is life changing. This short but impactful book lays out how moving with the natural flow of the universe is a force multiplier in your life while taking less energy and resulting in more power and lasting impacts. This book is for everyone, it knows no hierarchal boundaries and will be a conversation starter for years to come after you read it. Great job Michael!"

Steven R.

"Though geared towards leaders, especially those wanting to round out mental wellbeing within themselves and their teams, these great lessons serve as great grounding reminders in any life. The cherry on top are the wonderful illustrations throughout the book!"
