Review

Millions of individuals--myself included--have been inspired by the words and works of John Maxwell. Now, in The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, John again shares his remarkable insights and wisdom into how each of us can reach our full potential and make a positive difference in the lives of others.―Elizabeth Dole, former U.S. Cabinet Secretary, Senator and President of the American Red Cross, on The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth

I salute John Maxwell for being a pioneer for leadership throughout the world. In his most recent book, he has successfully distilled the 15 most invaluable laws for personal growth. To read this book is to receive the essence of John's expertise, which will help you take your personal success to the next level.―Stedman Graham, speaker, author and entrepreneur, on The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth

As a coach and leader, I am always looking for way to teach my players how to grow. Thanks to my good friend John Maxwell, you hold in your hands the instruction manual for taking next steps of growth. Embracing these laws will cause you to grow individually and in your contribution to those around you. This book is a must-read for anyone responsible for helping others to grow.―John Calipari, Head Basketball Coach at the University of Kentucky, on The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth

John has been a mentor and teacher for me for many years and what I love most about him is that he has pushed and helped me personally go through The 5 Levels of Leadership!―Kevin Turner, COO, Microsoft, on The 5 Levels of Leadership

John Maxwell's books have been required reading for my leadership team for years. I can't think of anyone better at distilling decades of leadership experience into practical, approachable principles that anyone can apply at any level of leadership.―Dave Ramsey, host of The Dave Ramsey Show and best-selling author of The Total Money Makeover, on The 5 Levels of Leadership

John is the business guru....people like Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, all were lucky. John has built a successful empire and business reputation on 40 plus years of being a successful, business leader. He teaches, coaches, mentors, hosts events and is a well sought after public speaker.

He's a intentional person, with a Christian background and belief and he practices both personally and professionally what he preaches and teaches.

You may not believe in religion, and or share his views on Christianity and he'll tell you upfront that's okay! However, when he speaks about leadership and your role as a leader, strategy, leading, mentoring, coaching, etc....you can borrow money and bet, he's giving you 110% fact based successful information you can bank on!

I do not like hearing someone read Mr. Maxwell's work. I enjoy his message when he is the one speaking. I realize it is the same message, but if you have heard Mr. Maxwell speak and then someone else read his material, you will understand.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great take away for me
Reviewed in the United States on January 10, 2016

I took some good insights from the book:
- Put your family ahead of your own desires. Put the development of people at the workplace ahead of your own advancement.
- To distinguish yourself, get noticed, and advance your career, you need to do and be more. You have to rise above average. You can do this by asking more of yourself than others ask, expecting more from yourself than others expect, believing more in yourself than others believe, doing more than others think you should have to do, giving more than others think you should give, and helping more than others think you should help

Thanks John for being dedicated to GROW YOURSELF.
