Maxwell Mastermind: Leading Through Crisis

Anyone can lead when the plan is working. The best lead when the plan falls apart.
-Robin Sharma

A time of turbulence is a dangerous time, but its greatest danger is a temptation to deny reality.
- Peter Drucker

In this mastermind group we discuss practices which equip leaders to maneuver through times of difficulty and adversity, and navigate organizational crises with poise and confidence. Attendees will learn, among other skills:

  • To discover and define the real problem

  • To simplify the situation, and

  • To take action, one step at a time

Are you prepared to lead through the next crisis?

Maxwell Mastermind: Becoming a Person of Influence

It is better to lead from behind and to put others in front… Take the front line when there is danger, and people will appreciate your leadership.
-Nelson Mandela

Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less. - John C. Maxwell

In this mastermind group, we will focus on the leader’s responsibility of positively impacting the lives of those around them, and those who follow them. Becoming a person of influence includes:

  • Gaining trust

  • Having faith in others

  • Multiplying leaders

How are you building influence among your constituents, colleagues, and commanders? Join us for this powerful and transformative group learning experience!

Maxwell Mastermind: Leadership Gold

If you are going to achieve excellence in big things, you develop the habit in little matters.
-General Colin Powell, Ret.

To grow you need to take the initiative.
If you do not have a personal growth plan, do not expect to grow. - John C. Maxwell

“Leadership Gold” is one of John Maxwell's greatest bestsellers. A must read for any aspiring leader, the book is filled with wisdom assembled into over two dozen gold “nuggets,” reminding leaders to:

  • Demonstrate appreciation, sensitivity, consistency, security & humor

  • Expect more from themselves than others expect from them

  • Learn to accept criticism.

If I had to assign one book for any leader to read, whether they are a middle school class president or the President of the United States, “Leadership Gold” would be the one.

Dark Sides of Leadership

Your actions are too loud. I cannot hear what you’re saying.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson

When you were made a leader you weren't given a crown,
you were given the responsibility to bring out the best in others. - Jack Welch

Using Gary McIntosh and Samuel Rima’s “Overcoming the Dark Side of Leadership” as a text, we will discover how a leader’s unchecked negative habits and attitudes impede progress and undermine good intentions. Using humor and popular leadership fables, I’ll help participants discover their leadership liabilities in a psychologically safe and confidential environment. Key Benefits of the Dark Sides Support Squad:

  • Deeper insights into personal leadership assets and liabilities

  • A repository of approaches to help minimize the influence of one’s leadership darksides

  • Solidarity with a group committed to vulnerability, honesty, and growth

In my college-level courses, this teaching has left the most memorable and positive impact on my students. I hope you’ll (take a deep breath, and) consider joining us for the next session.
