THE 360-DEGREE LEADER BY JOHN C. MAXWELL
With more than thirty years of leadership experience under his belt, John Maxwell has written, most likely, his best work on the issue of leadership to date â The 360-Degree Leader.
In this volume, Maxwell addresses the question of how to lead when youâÂÂre not the one in charge. It is a challenging question, but Maxwell offers great insight along with the kind of practical advice for which he has come to be known.
A good example of this comes in âÂÂLead-up Principle #2 â Lighten Your LeaderâÂÂs Load.â Maxwell asserts that one way to develop your own leadership skills while in the middle of an organization is to ask your leader how you can lift the load. Maxwell goes on to state that the way you add value to your leader is to ask three questions:
âÂÂCan I say something you have said before to give you another voice?âÂÂ
âÂÂCan I say something you would like to say but canâÂÂt, to give you a needed voice?âÂÂ
âÂÂCan I say something you havenâÂÂt said yet to give you the first voice?âÂÂ
Overall, I can say with confidence that I would definitely recommend this book and, in fact, I already have. We have a leadership development program where I work. I facilitate the module that covers public speaking. I recommended this book to the leader of the program and it is now the required text for this cohort.
This book is a must read for anyone who is interested in growing his or her ability to lead up, down, and across. By applying the practical principles found in these pages, one can increase his influence and makes himself into a more valuable team member.

Great for a young leader
Ever wondered what it takes to make a great leader? Ever felt trapped by your position (or complete lack thereof) within your company? John Maxwell's book on how to lead effectively from wherever God has placed you within your company is the perfect tool to equip you to become a better leader. Within this quick and fascinating work, John helps the reader understand that your position isn't what stops you from leading, it is your mindset. That a great leader, is the man/woman who embraces the job he/she has today, and works hard to better those around them, and the company as well.
I thought this book was very helpful for me, a young leader, who feels surrounded by older and wiser leaders. It helped me feel equipped to speak out in meetings, embrace ideas, and run in the areas where I may be gifted differently than those around me. The tools that John Maxwell gives throughout the book has helped me become a better leader, a better follower, and a more effective communicator.
