Quote: "You are the sum of the 5 people that you spend your time with” --- Jim Rohn

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead.

The value of an environment cannot be underestimated. In a 2023 article by the Center on the Developing Child at Harvard University, physical environments where children live affect their development and health. In fact, a child’s environmental exposure early in life can cause lasting changes in developing biological systems. Whether for good or bad, the environment we spend most of our time in has lasting effects.

The quote by Jim Rohn provides insights on how important the environment and the people we spend most of our time with affect both our personal and professional growth. Rohn coined the quote after a research study based on the law of averages. "When it comes to relationships, we are greatly influenced - whether we like it or not - by those closest to us. It affects our way of thinking, our self-esteem, and our decisions. Of course, everyone is their own person, but research has shown that we're more affected by our environment than we think.

The law of Environment states that growth thrives in conducive surroundings. It becomes expedient then for leaders to frequently assess their environment for growth alignment. Sometimes, leaders need to change their environments to grow. Furthermore, it is possible to change without growing but it is impossible to grow without changing.

In this episode of Points of Leadership, continuing our discussion on Dr. John Maxwell's 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth , we dive into the chapter on law of environment. We begin with a quick overview using the analogy of a plant, and the key components it needs to grow. Without sunlight, water, air, temperature and the right soil, a plant will shrivel and die off. And with the presence of all necessary components, the plant flourishes well.

Furthermore, Dr. Feyi Obamehinti, and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck- CEO of ReWorking Strategies LLC - a values-based company in Connecticut discuss how to determine what conducive environment looks like and how to assess what nurtures towards growth. This is a great jumpstart to cast vision for this year for both your personal and professional growth. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well through the overflow of his or her life. So, pull up a chair, call a friend and take a listen and share with any industry leader in your life. Happy New Year Points of Leadership Community! Our First Episode of 2025!

Quote: "Discipline is consistency of action" --- James C. Collins

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead.

Consistency is one of the values that is multi-dimensional. Coleman a Harvard Business Review leadership contributor shares how consistency is the defining value of high performers in an organization. He states how consistent leaders not only work hard, or show up authentically, but also empower and equip their teams in producing excellent results.

Similarly, Turner and Rindova in their 2011 research on how to maintain consistency in the face of ongoing change, examine how participants routinely view and balance the demands of consistency and need for flexibility. The end results suggest that the value of discipline plays a big role in maintaining the balance between consistency and flexibility.

In this episode of Points of Leadership, continuing our discussion on Dr. John Maxwell's 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth , we dive into the next chapter on the law of consistency. We begin with a quick overview, the what, how, why and when of consistency and some practical ways to create a habit of consistency.

Furthermore, Dr. Feyi Obamehinti, and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck- CEO of ReWorking Strategies LLC - a values based company in Connecticut discuss how consistency is the hallmark of excellence. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well. With a few days left in 2024, this is a great time to jump start your 2025 with this episode. So, pull up a chair, call a friend and take a listen and share with any industry leader in your life.

Quote: "Without reflection, we go blindly on our way" --- Dr. Margaret Wheatley

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead.

Reflection is an executive function that propels growth both personally and professionally. In a 2022 Havard Business Review article by Bailey and Rehman, titled, "Don't Underestimate the Power of Reflection", it indicates through research that the practice of reflection distinguishes extraordinary professionals.

This is because reflection increases critical thinking, self-awareness and understanding. Continuing our discussion on Dr. John Maxwell's 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth , we dive into chapter five with a look at the law of reflection. We begin with a quick overview of how the law of the mirror is different from the law of reflection. Each law is distinct in its scope and intent.

Furthermore, Dr. Feyi Obamehinti, and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck- CEO of ReWorking Strategies LLC - a values based company in Connecticut discuss and provide some insights into what the law of reflection is all about and its benefits for both personal and professional growth. A standout thread of discussion in this episode is how reflection is a practice of great secure leaders, who welcome questions, critiques or dissent voices to fuel their continuous growth. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well. With a few days left in 2024, this is a great time for reflection. So, pull up a chair, call a friend and take a listen and share with any industry leader in your life.

Quote: "There are two great days in a person's life: the day you were born and the day you discover why" --- Mark Twain

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead.

Purpose though divinely assigned, requires a personal responsibility to unpack, unearth and live out. Everyone as an image bearer of God possess a myriad of gifts, talents, and possibilities, yet only a few embark on the grueling journey it takes to discover and live purposefully.

A study conducted by the National Library of Medicine in 2010, suggest there are a variety of factors that inhibit people from discovering their purpose- one being self-esteem. This is central to every area of one's life. From taking responsibility for personal development, to competency, self-love and motivation to mention a few according to the 2010 study.

Dr. John Maxwell has studied, taught and lived out leadership for over five decades. In this episode, we dive into the 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth with a look at the law of the mirror. We cover the general premise that a person has to value himself or herself before he or she can add value to themselves and others. As Dr. John Maxwell states, "growth doesn't just happen." And when a leader grows in his or her leadership, everyone connected to that leader is impacted for the best.

Furthermore, Dr. Feyi Obamehinti, and Mrs. Kristin Jaeck- CEO of ReWorking Strategies LLC - a values based company in Connecticut discuss and provide some insights into what the law of the mirror is all about. As always, the leadership principles we share on Points of Leadership are for any leader in any industry that desires to take care of those they lead well.
