Take Charge Instead of Taking Sh*t.
Most leadership advice sounds good.
Very little of it works when things get hard.
Carnivore Leadership is a battle-tested mindset for leaders who are done waiting, done reacting, and ready to own decisions, standards, and outcomes.
This mindset was forged where failure wasn’t theoretical, and accountability was absolute.
It works because it has to.
In Carnivore Leadership, Ramón “CZ” Colón-López distills decades of combat, crisis, and senior leadership into twenty “Silver Bullets”—practical lessons forged under pressure where lives, missions, and trust were on the line.
This is not motivation. It’s a playbook.
For anyone ready to stop waiting and start leading.
“This isn’t theory — it’s battle-tested truth with hard-earned lessons that apply whether you lead on the battlefield, in the boardroom, or anywhere in between.”
Born and raised in Puerto Rico, Ramón “CZ” Colón-López served 33 years in the U.S. military, culminating as the Senior Enlisted Advisor to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (SEAC)—the highest-ranking enlisted leader in the U.S. military, responsible for 2.4 million troops and a multibillion-dollar budget. From Joint Special Operations missions to the Pentagon, CZ led in environments where leadership was measured in outcomes, not intentions.
Across decades of service, he captured lessons from combat, failure, and senior leadership in thirteen Moleskine notebooks—the foundation of Carnivore Leadership.
Today, he brings those lessons to leaders who understand that responsibility is not optional and leadership is not a title.
