"Transform Yourself...Transform Your People"

(Photo credit: Baptist Convention of New England)
You cannot give what you do not have. ~ John Maxwell
According to John Maxwell, reknowned leadership expert, transformational leadership "influences people to think, speak, and act in such a way that it makes a positive difference int their life and in the lives of others."

Recenty, John Maxwell offered an interactive training session on transformational leadership via a live call. If you are like me and missed the call, have no fear. John offers the recording of the call on his Join John Live! website. He supplements the call with worksheets.

John walks you through his four steps of transformation:
  1. Transformation begins with a calling - "I Want to Make a Difference"
  2. Transformation stands on a cause - "Doing Something That Makes a Difference"
  3. Transformation spreads from me to we - "With People Who Make a Difference"
  4. Transformation breathes with urgency - "At a Time When It Makes a Difference"
Transformation begins with you. Take a moment to invest in and develop self.
