The Latshaw Doctrine · Book One

Wheels Up

A Founder’s Doctrine for Building a Business — and a Life — That Lasts.

About the Book

Two decades of building, handed to the next operator

This is the operating doctrine that made all of it possible — the five non-negotiables and the twenty-one chapters of frameworks that one founder and his wife built across two decades of running companies. Now they hand it to the next operator, at the legal pad, where every company really begins. Not theory. Not a memoir. A field manual for building a business, and a life, that lasts.

The Author

From the cockpit to a $200M company

Leroy A. Latshaw is a retired U.S. Army aviator (CW3) who, with his wife Jamie, spent more than two decades building businesses together — growing Lexicon into a $200 million international firm recognized on the Inc. 500 and by Goldman Sachs as one of its 100 Most Intriguing Entrepreneurs. Wheels Up is the doctrine behind that climb, published under Latshaw Press Doctrine, an imprint of GT Creative Solutions.
