Unarmed Leadership

No

The term "unarmed leadership" came to me when my old boss told me not to "die on my sword after I use it". I reflected on that, and thought "I don't want to be a leader that uses his sword to get his way". What King would I gladly follow into battle after he's used his sword on me? None...
So I am educating others on a style of "unarmed" leadership. Put down your sword, put down your shield and take off the armour that you're hiding behind. I plan to take this concept with me as I head into businesses and organizations to teach team building, and leadership development. I also help couples and individuals with personal development and relationship building. I coach and facilitate people on how to treat others, so we can all have closer relationships with those in our lives. I see Mom's, Dad's, Gramma's, Grampa's all as important leaders in our world, not just CEO's and Managers of companies.
Just to explain who I am a little more, as I am a big part of my business. I am a 36 year old male with 3 kids, and a wife. I am a caucasian Canadian with a muscular build and tattoos. I am a kind hearted person with a very welcoming smile. A friend once described me as the "New Avengers Hulk", as I am rugged on the exterior but soft on the inside. I am a Plumber by trade, and have worked in the water and wastewater industries for 18 years. I play hockey, lift weights, do yoga and meditate. I am drawn to shows like Sons of Anarchy, Vikings, Game of Thrones, and Kingdom. I like the font from the show Kingdom, where they have "Navy St. Mixed Martial Arts". I'm partial to that type of lettering. Block type with all caps feels cool to me. I plan to put this logo on clothing as well, hat's, and shirts. So something that would look good on the front of a hat, front left chest of a polo shirt, and printed large on the back of a shirt I'd wear at the gym would be awesome.

I run a Men's Circle and participate in men's initiation weekends. My spirit animals are Curious Chipmunk and Bearded White Wolf-Hawk.
I am located in British Columbia, Canada and see myself primarily working in this area.
I recognize it's a long name for a business, so if only "Unarmed" is workable, I'm open to that. The "Leadership" portion doesn't have to be the same size as "Unarmed". But my website is unarmedleadership.com and business name is Unarmed Leadership Inc. If adding "Inc." to the text makes it look better, I'm open to that as well.

not sure

I'm open to more colours (blue, orange, green, or yellow) than the ones I've selected, or just black and white.

I have been envisioning something like a hand or person dropping a sword or shield, but I also don't want a contradiction where there's a weapon and the term "unarmed" in the same image. If that makes sense.

I don't want any guns or connection to someone with their hands on their head or police, or modern day military association.

I like olden day warriors, such as vikings, knights, or spartans. As well as Kings from those eras.

I would like more than just words, as I am into images and metaphors.

As noted in "represent or convey" section:

    Thank you LEMARC for those versions (drafts 28 & 29). I like that you added the shine on the blade of the sword. I'm liking the idea that WARL99 brought to the table in Draft 23. The added attention to detail of the damage to the mask is great. I also like draft 30's attention to the detail it brought to the sword and the little pieces of sword where it's broken. Both 23 and 30 added "Inc" to the design, which I 'm quite liking. Please keep up the good work everyone. These are so creative, and I look forward to logging in to see what else has come!

    I'm liking what draft #6 has to offer. The idea of a broken sword plays well with the story I have. I would like renditions of this idea. A vertical sword with it behind the words perhaps, or what if it's part of the words. Maybe try the sword between Unarmed and Leadership horizontally. What would a broken shield look like? Or broken helmet or armour. I like the simplicity with one symbol and the lettering is looking good in it as well. Easy to read and understand.
