What are the main factors for success or failure in organizations? If we asked people this question, we will surely get many answers; however, I believe that leadership will at top of these factors. This is exactly what John C. Maxwell states in his books.
I chose this time to write about one of the most useful books in leadership field written by John C. Maxell, that is: THE 21 IRREFUTABLE LAWS OF LEADERSHIP.
The beauty of this book is that it explains the leadership basics and concepts through different laws. These laws came out through Mr. Maxwell's long experience in leadership field in addition to his huge knowledge in this fields which is shown through many personal and general stories, quotes, concepts and explanations.
In the introduction, the author states two important concepts:
- Leadership requires the ability to perform more than one thing effectively.
- No one is able to apply all the 21 laws effectively; however, the more laws applied, the more effective the leader will be.
I believe that every leader or who ever seeks to be a leader should read this book since it will provide many important concepts for them.
The laws is like a checklist that any person can evaluate himself. Whatever strength points can be maintained and whatever weaknesses can be improved.
From next episode, I will start taking about laws where I will mention in each episode one law.
