Developing the Leaders Around You



The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership may have blazed you the path to being a great leader. But few great leaders leave a legacy.

In order to do that, best-selling author John Maxwell argues that it is necessary to develop leaders as you groom yourself into one. Just as a teacher reinforces her knowledge every time she teaches, leaders just similarly become greater each time they nurture one. This in turn would have the inevitable result of propelling your company, organization or even family onto new heights that would never be reached in any other way.

Plenty of anecdotes but it gets a little preachy towards the end. Good for bedtime reading, especially when you need to fall asleep fast.
