Book Review: The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership

Interesting... very interesting. I'm such a giant nerd and I love leadership books. I wouldn't say that I'm actively involved in any sort of business sector that has traditional leadership roles, but I feel like you learn so much more about yourself from these books. You flush out your bad habits. You figure out how people will actually listen to you.
These are really nicely written because John C. Maxwell is an ex-pastor. Not an ex-CEO. Therefore you get a more human perspective. It's not about how you can make more money, but how you can positively influence people. And I like that.
The good thing is that each law is a few pages so you can read it in little chunks. I find this is the way I like my non-fiction books. Short and to the point without silly little stories placed for filler.
