Leadership Landmines (Part 2)

JOHN MAXWELL
About this episode

Mark Cole and Chris Goede continue our series on Leadership Landmines. Last week John Maxwell taught the first 5 landmines, and this week he’ll teach you landmines 6-10. These are areas of leadership that, if neglected, can cost you, your culture, and your organization dearly. But if you can learn how to avoid them, you can take your leadership to a whole new level. 

Key Takeaways:

·      Leadership is visual; example is key

·      Your goals do not ensure your future, your growth does

·      “It is only as we develop others that we permanently succeed.” –Harvey Firestone 

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