Twenty-five years ago, John Maxwell published the book that forever transformed how people think about leadership. Developing the Leader Within You showed that leaders are made, not born, and helped more than two million people in the process. Maxwell now returns to this classic text to include the insights and practices he has learned in the decades since that work first appeared.
In this completely revised and expanded workbook, based on the book of the same title, you will receive everything you need to take a significant step in your leadership journey, along with in-depth activities designed to help develop the leader within you. If you complete all the readings and exercises and answer all the questions, you will be amazed at how your influence, effectiveness, and impact will increase in such a short time. And if you’re going through this process with a group, you’ll enjoy the challenging discussion questions at the end of each lesson so you can explore the ideas in even greater depth.
With insights gleaned from his forty-plus years of leadership success, Maxwell will especially help readers explore the value of:
Achieving success using the Five Levels of Leadership
Developing people—a leader’s most appreciable assets
Identifying and solving problems and preventing their recurrence
Defining and articulating a vision for your organization
Building on the leadership skills you already possess
No matter the arena in which you find yourself called to serve—family, business, or nonprofit—the principles Maxwell shares in this workbook will help you develop the vision, value, influence, and motivation required of successful leaders.
