The Leadership Handbook

John C. Maxwell Β· 2015
πŸŽ™ Narrated by Steven Grimsley
62/100
πŸ‘Ž Skip It

Maxwell's 26 bite-sized lessons are competent and clean, but there's nothing here you haven't heard across his other books, and the written application exercises don't translate great to audio-only. It's a fine refresher, not an essential listen. Steven Grimsley narrates it steady and direct, which suits the material even if the content itself is thin.
