About this audiobook
Smart leaders learn from their own mistakes. Smarter leaders learn from other’s mistakes and their successes.
Bestselling author and leadership guru Dr. John C. Maxwell wants to help you become the smartest leader you can be by sharing Leadership Gold with you. After more than forty years of leading and teaching, Maxwell has mined the gold so you don't have to. Each gold nugget is contained in one of twenty-six chapters designed to be a six-month mentorship from the international leadership expert.
A leader among leaders, Maxwell promised himself early in his career that he wouldn't write this book until he was sixty. Now, the time is finally here.
In Leadership Gold, he shares valuable lessons such as:
- Don’t send your sucks to eagle school
- People quit people, not companies
- Influence should be loaned but never given
- When you get kicked in the rear, you know you’re out in front
- People will summarize your life in one sentence – pick it now
With his signature style, Maxwell comes alongside like a mentor, candidly taking you through what feels like a one-on-one leadership program.?Each chapter contains detailed application exercises and a “Mentoring Moment” for leaders who desire to mentor others using the book.
Leadership Gold offers the best of the best, the tried-and-true lessons that no one but Maxwell can share.
