Instead of being merely the receiver of the parents' psychological and spiritual legacy, children function as ushers of the parents' development. Parents unwittingly pass on an inheritance of psychological pain and emotional shallowness. To handle the behavior that results, traditional books on parenting abound with clever techniques for control and quick fixes for dysfunction. In Dr. Shefali Tsabary's conscious approach to parenting, however, children serve as mirrors of their parents' forgotten self.

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

In this remarkable recording, C. S. Lewis shows why millions of readers have acclaimed him the greatest spokesman for Christianity in the 20th century. In a resonant, baritone voice, Lewis explores the nature of the four Greek words that are translated love in English: storge (affection), philia (friendship), eros (sexual or romantic love) and agape (selfless love).

Good lessons but need updated stories
Really helpful with good points that will either be new or reinforce an experience leaders philosophy.
The one knock I can give it are the stories he tells about successful leaders which are almost comically out of date now. To name a few, stories about Ray Kroc, the owner of Chick-fil-a, Lance Armstrong, and a couple others who may not be the best examples of success in 2019.

I bought this Audio to help me with school . I tried following it with the actual book but this does not follow it at all. Skips a lot of important pages and information . It helps some to get the concept of the chapter but if your using as a study element do not trust its providing all the information written in this version . There is a lot of pages the reader skips around .

Incomplete
I bought this book for a group book study. I thought haha I will do an audio version for listening on my commute. I grabbed the audio edition here on Audible and finished the book early. Once the book study began I quickly deciphered that I was missing content. I went ahead and shelled out additional money for the kindle version on a hunch that the Audible version didn't have as much as the written version. Sure enough there was so much missing from it that the Audible version is a waste of money and time and is basically obsolete.

Something Lacking in this Book
I really wanted to enjoy this book. Some of the anecdotes were enjoyable;however, the information provided is vague. It is easy to make a list of "laws" but without tips for implementation it seems rather useless. This book needed to be more in depth to be functional in my humble opinion.

Good Use of an Audible Credit
This is a great listen for someone who is interested in learning more about leadership. I put off buying this book because it was "only" around three hours long and I always want to get the most for my credits, but I really appreciated Maxwell being succinct. If you can communicate an idea clearly in a minute, do me a favor and don't take ten, amiright?
One nice thing about this book being short is that it basically hits the high points and there aren't any slow spots. I've listed through it twice and have found each listen to be beneficial.
Definitely worth a credit if you are interested in expanding your knowledge base on leadership.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. It may cover the basics but it covers a lot of basics. It explains why some leaders and managers are the way they are. It also gives you an idea about how to deal with them.
What about John Maxwell’s performance did you like?
I love the fact that he give the laws and relates them with stories.

All Fluff - No Beef
Each chapter gives you an "irrefutable law" of leadership. After the law, there are examples of how a major entity either succeeded or failed because they did or did not follow the law.
Okay great, so far. So now I ask myself, "what can I do to follow this law?" And this is where the book fails. No suggestions are given.
Basically it gives you the "what" and "why" but fails to offer the "how."
For example, law #6 discusses that "solid ground" is important for a leader. The narrative is about how the Johnson Administration lost trust with the American people by telling them that the war in Vietnam is going well. And then . . . on to the next chapter. So I am left knowing that solid ground is important (but I already knew that). So now I know of a story from 1969.
How does this relate to me?
No explanation.
What can I do in my daily life at work to help establish solid ground with my colleagues?
No explanation.
Any tips or ideas for an average person trying to move up the ladder to a leadership position?
No. None provided.
After listening to this audible book, I am left with one burning question:
Where's the beef?

Comprehensive and practical guide with great examples
This book takes a comprehensive view of leadership principles which seems overwhelming and illustrates through real life examples, some from the author and many from other examples in recent history, their importance. The author provides the audio for this book so you can here his emphasis through the tone in his voice when he urges the reader to take action and the consequences of doing so or not doing so in some cases. The chapters are not long so they are easy to complete at one sitting of 15 min per chapter or so. If you want to become an effective leader, listen and then act.

This didn't need to be a book
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
If you want to know what these laws are that's fine but this book doesn't tell you anything about "how to do it!!!"..... You gotta have influence...here's a story..... Okay? so any tips on how to have influence?..... NO!
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Explain how to acquire these 21 Laws.
Did The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, 10th Anniversary Edition inspire you to do anything?
To find better books
Any additional comments?
You don't need to write a book to tell someone what they need to do..... Books should be exclusive to "HOW" a person can learn to do what they need to do.
