More quotes by John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
If you really want to be a successful leader, you must develop other leaders around you. You must establish a team.
John C. Maxwell
Every new level of growth we hope to experience as leaders calls for a new level of change. You cannot have one without the other. If you want to be a better leader, get ready to make some trades.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
I've known people who thought that reaching their potential would come from shoring up their weaknesses. But do you know what happens when you spend all your time working on your weaknesses and never developing your strengths? If you work really hard, you might claw your way all the way to mediocrity! But you'll never get beyond it.
John C. Maxwell
You have to know who you are to grow to your potential. But you have to grow in order to know who you are.
John C. Maxwell
Unless you want to carry the whole load yourself, you need to be developing leaders.
John C. Maxwell
The leader continually passes on the vision to those who come around, knowing that dreams, if presented right, are contagious.
John C. Maxwell
Once our minds are 'tattooed' with negative thinking, our chances for long-term success diminish.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence. It is the ability to obtain followers. When the leader lacks confidence, the followers have no commitment. A leader is great not because of his power, but because of his ability to empower others.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is the power of one harnessing the power of many.
John C. Maxwell
We cannot consistently behave in a way that is inconsistent with our beliefs.
John C. Maxwell
Progress is often just a good idea away.
John C. Maxwell
Acquiring and keeping good people is a leader's most important task.
John C. Maxwell
Educators take something simple and make it complicated. Communicators take something complicated and make it simple.
John C. Maxwell
Of all the things a leader should fear, complacency heads the list.
