Maxwell will help any leader become more self-aware, focused, and confident. With fifty years of leading and teaching experience, influential leadership expert and speaker John C. Maxwell can help you become your best leadership self. In The Self-Aware Leader, Maxwell teaches you how to: gauge your effectiveness as a leader, make better choices that lead to success, discover and correct your own mistakes, improve your leadership with the team, and make the right trades in your career. Self-awareness is key for new and seasoned leaders who want to avoid micro-managing, handle criticism with grace, and give others the credit they deserve. Maxwell also aims to help current and new managers looking to identify their strengths, become a better learner, and improve listening skills. When leaders don’t see themselves clearly, understand their strengths and weaknesses, or recognize their negative interactions with their team, they limit their influence and undermine their own effectiveness.

Have you ever known a good builder? I mean a builder whose reputation preceded them? We often go to great lengths to tell others about our dream cars and dream houses, but, have we ever concluded that before any of these things materialized, they were burdened and birthed through the one that carried the blueprint. Many are living out their dreams but ultimately it is the builder that’s really living. Because what was once a mere inner thought has now manifested outwardly, and there is nothing more fulfilling than to see others living fulfilled lives stemmed from the thoughts and blueprints that the builders had on the inside of them. I pray that you can walk away with knowing that there is something buried down on the inside of each and every one of us that can benefit so many others lives and if we continue to build others we can and will live the ultimate dream as we watch lives change by virtue of the deposits we make in others. Have you done any building lately?
