21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership

Let's take a journey together.

In 2007, John C. Maxwell released the 10th Anniversary Edition of his: The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. It presents 21 life-changing principles that can develop and enhance our leadership skills. "Everything rises and falls on leadership," notes Maxwell.

Each week, we will review one of the laws and travel together along the path of leadership.

Some introductory points Maxwell makes:

1. Leadership requires the ability to do more than one thing well. [The more of the laws we can master, the more effective leaders we will be.]
2. No one does all 21 laws well. [...BUT they are all important for great leadership. Thus, we should recognize those laws where we fall short and develop a leadership team of others who are strong where we are weak.]
3. The laws can be learned/acquired.
4. The laws can stand alone [...although they compliment one another and together produce a better result].
5. The laws carry consequences with them: apply them and people will follow; violate them and we will not be able to lead others.
6. These laws are the foundation of leadership [...we will have to practice and apply them to our lives].

Where there is no guidance [leadership], a nation falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety. Proverbs 11:14

Looking forward to growing together.

In Christ.
