Episode 50 (Grow and Lead)

If anyone asked me to recommend books about leadership, I would recommend John C. Maxwell books. One of his great books in leadership field is (THE 21 IRREFUTABLE LAWS OF LEADERSHIP) where he explains the importance and characteristics of a leader.

The tenth law is called (The law of Connection) and it states that leaders touch heart before they ask for a hand​.

The important points under this law are the following:

- When it comes to working with people, the heart comes before the mind. This is true whether you are communicating in a stadium full of people, leading a team meeting, or even trying to connect with your partner.

- You cannot encourage people to work unless you affect them emotionally.

- Good leaders connect with people all the time either they were connecting with full organization or with one person.

- One of the bases for connection with others is to realize that even in groups you should connect with people as individuals.

- You should know your personality and trust yourself if you want to connect with others.

- Successful leaders who follow the law of connection are always the initiators. They take the first step with others then make efforts to sustain in building relations.

- When a leader really does everything they can to engage with their followers, you can see that in the way the organization operates.

The law of connection is essential for any leader to success and be effective.

Episode 49 (Grow and Lead)

Through 21 laws, John C. Maxwell explains in his book (THE 21 IRREEFUTABLE LAWS OF LEADERSHIP) the importance, characteristics and the values of leadership. It is a very useful book for leaders and whoever wants to learn leadership.

The ninth law is called (The law of Magnetism) and it states that who you are is who you attract.

The important points under this law are the following:

- People who are attracted to leaders probably have more similar characteristics than different ones, especially in some essential areas.

- In most organizations, the employees who join them are often of the same generation as the leaders who hired them.

- People with positive attitudes tend to make others feel more positive. On the other hand, people with negative attitudes tend to disappoint others.

- People will attract and be attracted to others with the same backgrounds.

- It does not matter whether the values are positive or negative, in both cases, the attraction will be on same power.

- The better leader you are, the better leaders you attract.

This law is important to be taken care by the leader since many results expected will depend on this law especially that the teams will be established based on this law.
