What people are saying about The 9L’s Book:

  • I recently finished a book that I thought was worth sharing with you all. The book is called The 9 L’s: Key Concepts for Building a High Performance Culture, by Corley Moore For those that might not know, Chief Moore is a BC in Moore, OK, runs the one of the best fire service podcasts (The Weekly Scrap), has authored three books, is an amazing speaker/instructor, and most importantly, is a great human. This book is written specifically for firefighters, although almost all of these concepts translate to leadership in any domain (i.e. military, sport, corporate, family, etc.). This book touches on a lot of concepts (i.e. trust, practice, autonomy and authority, rewarding effort, crew/culture calibration, electronic isolation, don’t/can’t/won’t, etc.), and is full of actionable information. To set the stage, here’s a brief description of the book, by the author, “Finding ways to motivate people is what the 9L’s are about; building and honing a leadership skill set that enables you to plug into all the firefighters in your charge; not just the go-getters.”

    -Nick (Facebook Review)

  • Absolutely solid book. Very easy read. Chief Moore takes on the difficult task of wording military small unit leadership with fire service terminology, and applications. And he KILLED IT! Highly recommended for any level of fire service professional. From informal leader to Chief of department, this book will help you become a better leader.

    -Kevin (Amazon Review) *adding in his own 10th L, LEGIT (insert rocker horns here!)

  • Chief Moore wrote the book that got me back into reading! From start to finish, the book is packed with relevant, captivating information. The 9 L's are pillars of living a high performance lifestyle. Hats off to Chief Moore!

    -Derek (Amazon Review)

  • Absolutely great read! From cover to cover Chief Moore keeps you wanting to learn more. Ways to commit to a better version of yourself not only in the firehouse, but in your life. If you’re thinking about reading this book, STOP! Buy it and read it now!

    -Andrea (Amazon Review)

  • Chief just finished reading this morning on my kindle . I feel like a part of a new football team that was just given a new play book with a new opponent. I’m going to have to re read this again ( walkthroughs) needed! Keep up the great work !!

    -Jordan (Amazon Review)

  • This was hands down one of the best books I have read on leadership. The material is simplistically put and easy to connect with and put into action. I highly recommend this for anyone at any level of leadership. Even the young firefighter with aspirations of being an officer one day. I cannot recommend this book enough, you will not be disappointed. I will most certainly be reading this again. Excellent work Chief! Thank you for your dedication to making our profession better.

    -Nate (Facebook)

  • Shoutout to Corley Moore this book was phenomenal! It was an easy read with some great insight on leadership! We need to support our brothers and sisters and shine light on them when we can. Corley deserves a lot of light after this book!

    -Dustin (Facebook)

  • Corley Moore did an excellent job at writing this book. It can relate to any rank in the fire service to any profession outside of the fire service. As you read, you can hear him narrate it in your head as if y’all are sitting at the picnic table in the bay. All of the points that he hit on couldn’t have been more spot on. The only thing you don’t get, is the incidental music you receive when you take this class in person. Corley, I’m proud of you man. Thanks for the read.

    -Michael (Facebook)

  • Next on my list of fantastic books that I've recently read is "The 9 L's" by @firehousevigilance 's Chief Moore. This isn't the usual dry, spelled out leadership book. Chief Moore is able to seamlessly weave each of the 9 tenants into real-life examples from firehouse life to personal life. I listened to Chief Moore's episode of @national_fire_radio where he was discussing this book, and by the end of the hour, it was already on order from his website. I know that a book is good if when I finish, it is all marked up and annotated for future reference. I highly recommend this book to anybody looking to optimize their mindset, be it at home or on the job.

    -Derek (Instagram)

  • I just finished the book for the second time! I wanted to go back and pick up on what I might have missed the first time. I’ve never done that with any book before!

    -Troy (Facebook)

  • Corley nailed it in this book. A guide, a blue print to leadership. Corley takes the subject of leadership and packages it into a book that reads as if you’re sitting at the kitchen table, listening to a trusted friend or mentor talk. All too often leadership books can be predictable. The 9L’s is far from it. I’ve never had the class that goes with the book. I would sit at the beginning of each chapter, read the “L” and think I knew where it was going. I was usually wrong. Corley’s book is informative, well written, thought provoking, and applicable for the Chief, company officer, and aspiring company officer.

    -Clay (Facebook)

  • The 9L's - This is a must have for anyone looking to become the catalyst for a culture of high performance in their organization.

    -Robert (Facebook)

  • Although I'm a tad biased based off my addiction to the Weekly Scrap Podcast that Chief Moore puts on (10/10 stuff right there), I think this book should be in the hands of every firefighter in the nation. It's leadership philosophy and ideals can be implemented both the Fire Department, as well as personal life in general. As I currently go through my first year in a formal leadership position within my own Fire Department, I found this book insanely invaluable and will be reading it again for years to come to keep me on the path. I also appreciated him giving ampule amounts of credit where it was due, to me that speaks volumes. It's very well put together, easy to read, and well organized. Unfortunately, I felt the need to rip out page 239 and post it on the door of my locker so I see it every day on shift. Goin' find out for yourself! TYFYS

    -Amazon Review

  • Reading through mine a second time!!! Absolutely love it! Corley Moore is hands down one of the best!

    -Caleb (Facebook)

  • This book is a collaboration of concepts everyone (not only directed to those in the fire service) should read, learn, and be able to apply. It is easily relatable for almost any age group, experience level, or situation. Fantastic book that I wish I had when I was in RN training. If you read this book and it doesn’t change your perspective on relationships, career, and self then you didn’t truly read the book. IMPACTFUL!!!

    -Amazon Review

  • Great book! Hit the nail on the head in several different aspects that we deal with in the fire service today! Highly recommend!

    -Dee (Amazon Review)

  • This was one of the easiest books to read. It flows very nice and you can tell it was written for firefighters. There are many topics discussed in the book that are on the minds of firefighters across the U.S. I’m already looking forward to reading it again! Great job Chief Moore.

    -Charles (Amazon Review)

  • Chief Moore wrote the book that got me back into reading! From start to finish, the book is packed with relevant, captivating information. The 9 L's are pillars of living a high performance lifestyle. Hats off to Chief Moore!

    -Derek (Amazon Review)

  • About half way through and hands down one of the best books I’ve read!

    -Dalton (Facebook)

  • 9 L’s by Corley Moore is a fantastic read! I would recommend it to the youngest firefighter, newest company officer, and the most seasoned officer. It is very easy to read and relate. Great Job Chief Moore!

    -James (Amazon Review)

  • I was part of Chiefs preorder, but had several books ahead to read. When I finally got to reading I couldn’t put it down. It’s very well written and highlighted things we can all work on in the fire service to become better leaders. There are too many points to highlight but I really loved his bit on esprit de corps.

    -Ken (Amazon Review)

  • This book is easy to read, well written, and gets down in the weeds. I bought this for my shift LT's. We went through it chapter by chapter. It opened up our relationships. It assisted us in reviewing one another. Do yourself a favor and buy a copy. The best part about this book is it applies outside the fireservice as well.

    -Amazon Review

  • I am normally not much of a reader. Corley has his own Podcast "The Weekly Scrap" that I listen to each week and it is amazing! When I heard that Corley was writing this book I was excited to purchase it. This book is written like Corley is sitting there having a conversation with me! I would highly recommend this book to everyone! There's a lot of concepts that I had never thought of before which is great! -Ryan E. (Amazon Review)

    -Ryan E. (Amazon Review)

  • This book is spot on. It’s not just for the current leaders but for the up and coming future of the fire service.

    -John (Amazon Review)

  • After hearing Chief Moore at a conference I knew I wanted this book. Shortly after ordering a copy I became the Training Chief at my fire department. We were in the midst of a significant decay in a once great culture. I was able to get 15 more copies of the book and distribute them to all officers at my department. We formed a leadership class based around the concepts of The 9L's & I was overwhelmed with the response from our department Chief Moore's bits of wisdom combined with courage and humility of command staff willing to take responsibility have begin to transfer the attitudes and mindset of our command staff. We are in the early stages of our cultural shift but the ground is beginning to move. Thank you Chief

    -Brian A. (Amazon Review)

  • This is an exceptional leadership book that works for any occupation as well as the fire service. Easy read with great techniques to help improve your leadership abilities.

    -Clyde (Amazon Review)

  • When I purchased this book, I intended it to help in my progression through the fire service. To my surprise, every principal is applicable to all aspects of life. I use the lessons addressed to lead my family, communicating and laying out expectations better with friends and relatives, and instilling the ideologies with my teenaged and first grade sons. I reel my wife in with in-depth discussions about the book and she has gained quite a bit of understanding as a new leader in her career. Chief Moore didn't rewrite how leadership should be viewed and addressed with the 9L's.... He made it extremely easy to understand and apply to do many different areas of day to day life.

    -Brent (Amazon Review)

  • Great book it follows along with how the class goes. It is a great read for any up and coming leader in any field not just the fire service

    -Lewis (Amazon)

  • This is a must read for ANYONE. The 9 L’s can be applied to absolutely any part of life, whether it be at home, the baseball field , the corporate office and definitely the firehouse! Corley has mined an absolute gem of a handbook for basic concepts of leadership. Do yourself a favor and pick this up and give it a read.

    -Jim (Amazon Review)

  • Chief Corley Moore Knocked it out of the park with this book it’s a must read it’s so hard to put down once you get started and it’s written in a way that it makes learning fun

    -Tanner (Amazon Review)

  • This is a must read book for anyone who is in or wants to pursue a leadership position. The book is well written, easy to follow, and very FF friendly. As a person who hasn't read a book cover to cover in over 20 years, I can say this is worth reading and left me wanting to pick it up again each time I put it down.

    -Christopher (Amazon Review)

  • The 9Ls is such a simple concept to follow but Corley also dives deep into all of these leadership principals. There are many leadership books I tell people are must reads and this is one of those books!

    -Dustin C. (Amazon Review)

  • Great book for all firefighters and other walks of leadership! Corley breaks down proven methods of successful leadership!

    -Paul (Amazon Review)

  • One of the best books to read about leadership Straight to the point. Highly recommend this book. I used this book to help me in my journey through the fire service on how to become a great leader for others to follow in and through their path.

    -Gregory (Amazon Review)

  • This is an awesome book. It is targeted towards the fire service and is very relatable for firefighters. Though the things in this book can be applied to other professions, family, and mere day to day life. I highly recommend it.

    -Gabriel (Amazon Review)

  • This book is great at motivating you to be a better leader and provides a road map on how to do it. Great Book!

    -David (Amazon Review)

  • Well written book with a phenomenal method on attacking the art of leadership. I recommend this book to anyone interested in leadership regardless of what industry you are in.

    -Amazon Review

  • practical, authentic...applicable for everyone from Firefighter to Chief.

    -Daniel (Amazon Review)

  • This book was very well thought out. It is great for all ranks of the fire service and life in general. I believe you will find this book on reading lists in the future as a must read. I’m not a great reader and found myself unable to put it down. Very good book in my opinion.

    -Tony G. (Amazon Review)

  • This is an awesome book. It has great leadership info in it. And it was so easy to read. You can tell Corley has a great passion for teaching and inspiring leaders in the fire service. Highly recommend The 9Ls.

    -Clayton (Amazon Review)

  • As Chief Moore says “max points”. One of the best fire service books I have read. A lot of daily life lessons that can be applied in aspects of life outside of the firehouse. Great book and a must read for every firefighter!

    -Matthew W. (Amazon Review)

  • This book was extremely beneficial to growing ones leadership skills. It was easier to highlight what wasn’t important. Highly recommend it to any one at any level.

    -Diane (Amazon Review)

  • There are countless leadership books on the market with something to offer but only a few great ones directed at firefighter. This book is destined to become a fire service leadership classic. This book will help you be your best regardless of your rank. I can't recommend it highly enough! -Martin (Amazon Review)

    -Martin (Amazon Review)

  • Just finished it and it a phenomenal read.

    -Abraham (Amazon Review)

  • Just finished the 9L’s chief. My complements on your ability to articulate the concepts in a systematic and logical manner. I found it to be introspective, inspiring and pertinent. Looking forward to the audio version. I will be recommending the 9L’s those realizing the need for a system to apply.

    -Facebook Review

  • This is an absolute must read for any fire officer, firefighter, office manager, or cop. Investing in your people and building a high performance culture is the standard that every leader, formal or informal, should strive for!

    -Sean (Amazon Review)

  • Easy to follow, no nonsense leadership lessons delivered in an easy to understand format and flow that provide real-world success and failure stories, supported with "bonus content" from the nation's most well-known and reputable firefighters. The lessons are true and applicable in any profession, and for any rank/title.

    -Amazon Review

  • Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 13, 2023 This book is absolutely amazing! Yes written by a Firefighter but the lessons in it apply to every aspect of life.
