“Maxwell offers a detailed and inspiring primer on becoming a leader. Even the Table of Contents reads like a motivational poster. Maxwell…debunks the myth that strong leaders must have big egos and spend all their time harnessing personal power. Instead, he elevates leadership to a spiritual act of service: ‘The growth and development of people is the highest calling of leadership. Maxwell relies on real-life anecdotes, short paragraphs, charts, and numerous lists to make his wisdom accessible…In teaching readers how to bring out the best in themselves as well as others, Maxwell offers a worthwhile life lesson that extends far beyond the workplace.”
