A Leadership Attitude Adjustment

JOHN MAXWELL
About this episode

Today, John Maxwell shares four thoughts on how leaders need to adjust their attitude to create powerful, positive change in their organizations and communities. After John’s lesson, Traci Morrow will join Mark Cole to talk about helpful ways you can apply this lesson to your life and leadership. 

Key takeaways:

-       Does your attitude determine the situation, or does the situation determine your attitude?

-       The happiest people in life are those who make the best of everything.

-       You are not what you think you are; but what you think, you are.

Our BONUS resource for this episode is the “Leadership Attitude Adjustment Worksheet,” which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John’s teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/AttitudeAdjustment and clicking “Download the Bonus Resource.”
