Publisher's summary

Learn how to develop the influence, character, service and vision that it takes to be a leader in every aspect of your life.

First released in 1993, John C. Maxwell’s now-classic work revolutionized the way leaders are made. By examining the differences between leadership styles, Maxwell outlines principles for inspiring, motivating, and influencing others from any type of leadership position--including as a business executive, a church leader, a teacher, or even a parent.

In this thoroughly revised and updated edition, Maxwell includes two new chapters to include the leadership insights and practices he has learned in the decades since the first edition so that you’ll receive everything you need to take a significant step in your leadership journey.

In Developing the Leader Within You 2.0, you will successfully learn and understand:

  • Influence – using the 5 Levels of Leadership as a roadmap to influence others
  • Character – embracing good ethics, practicing self-leadership, and valuing people
  • Service – asking eight questions to develop into a leader who serves others daily
  • Vision – including eight components when painting a vision for your people so they can experience it

These foundational principles provides both new listeners and longtime fans with the necessary wisdom to help any leader and organization succeed in fostering integrity, self-discipline, and effecting positive change.

Developing the Leader Within You 2.0 will help you transform the way you think about leadership.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Systematic & Sustainable framework for Leadership

The purpose of getting this book for me was to know what leadership means, and what part I should be working on specificall for myself.
This book achieves that purpose in two ways:
1) The content comprehensively covers all aspects of leadership.
2) It also provides tools you can use to address specific areas of leadership that you want to improve on.
It forms kind of a reference guide. You can refer it back and understand to a specific part of leadership role you need to hone on and what tools will work for it.

For those who:
1) are in a Leadership position already OR
2) those who have considerable experience working in the corporate world (even if not in the capacity of a leader),
the contents, of this book may not come as a surprise, as experience teaches lot of things already - which is what happened with me to some extent. But at least this gets your bearings right for the arena - which was a great help.

For Audio listeners not sure how they will work on exercises at end of each chapter. The accompanying PDF should have had that contents but it doesn't. The website also doesn't seem to have anything like that - anyway it's not a show stopper.

For young leaders or aspiring leaders - It is good reference material to assess and prepare for the next steps and keep it as their guiding star. Ofcourse other books/materials should be referenced where necessary.
The voice performance is also not bad - the writer has a heavy voice.

The Cons:
For Atheists, non believers in god, the writer can get bit annoying as he references to God too much - of course thats because this guy has that background and so his life circles around that totally and he cant help referencing it. But ignore that part and get the core content of it.
