This book is a grounded and uplifting exploration of leadership rooted in humility and community. Through personal anecdotes spanning business challenges and fatherhood, Kazama reframes leadership as service, authenticity, and resilience, not domination or exhibition. His Hawaiian upbringing and the ethos of aloha infuse the narrative with warmth and sincerity, while emphasizing responsibility and collective strength over self-promotion. The book delivers practical wisdom through storytelling, offering a relatable and credible roadmap for aspiring leaders—whether entrepreneurs just starting out, mid-career professionals, or seasoned executives in search of renewed perspective. Making Waves is direct, actionable, and meaningful, encouraging readers to embrace their leadership potential and “bet on yourself” with integrity, perseverance, and genuine connection.
