Episode 120 (Grow and Lead)

Welcome to this new episode where we talk about (THE LEADERSHIP HANDBOOK) book written by John C. Maxwell. The book provides important lessons for leaders to be successful and effective.

The twenty fourth lesson is (Few leaders succeed unless many people want them to succeed). The important points under this lesson are:

- Without many people working together, there would be no successful leaders.

- If you want to be a successful leader, you will need the support of many people, and if you are wise, you will appreciate and acknowledge their contributions to your success. 

- Behind every capable man are always other capable men and women. 

- If leaders thought more about the contributions of others, they would be more grateful to them. 

- There's a misconception that great leaders, especially those we read about in history, are capable of achieving great things regardless of the kind of help they receive from others.

- Only a small percentage of people are consistently successful over the long term, and this few understand that all success comes through the help of many others.

- As a leader, you will never move forward until your followers are behind you.

- People appreciate working with someone who appreciates them.

Episode 119 (Grow and Lead)

Welcome to this episode where we talk about (THE LEADERSHIP HANBOOK) book written by John C. Maxwell. The book provides important lessons for leaders to be successful and effective.

The twenty third lesson is (Those who start the journey with you rarely finish it with you). The important points under this lesson are the following:

- Just because you like people doesn't mean you need to have them on your team. 

- Any time you ignore reality for the sake of a relationship, you'll run into problems. 

- Just because people were good for the team at the beginning of the journey doesn't mean they'll always be able to go through the whole journey.

- If you keep and reward uncommitted or unproductive people, your team will eventually consist of uncommitted and unproductive individuals.

- If a leader keeps losing their best people, there's usually a problem with the leader.

 - You can't effectively lead people who would rather not be on your team.

- The more you develop yourself as a leader and invest in people, the more people you can choose from.

 - If you're still on the journey with some of the people who started with you, celebrate and reward them, and continue to enjoy the journey.

- When everyone on the team thinks that certain members are holding the team back, it reduces the organization's momentum, damages team chemistry, and undermines your leadership credibility.
