John Maxwell On CEOs Bringing People Together ‘In A World That Divides’
As global tensions rise and the post-pandemic world continues to grapple with unprecedented challenges, cultural divisions and one of the bitterest, most unpredictable presidential election cycles of our lifetime, the role of CEOs as stewards of our society has never been more critical. In this environment, bestselling author and leadership expert John Maxwell argues that taking the high road in leadership is not just an option—it’s a requirement.
“We’re living in a very ‘me’ culture,” said Maxwell, the author of more than 100 books, including classics including The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership and The 5 Levels of Leadership. “We’ve lost respect for people. We devalue people. It’s a downward spiral…So somebody has to speak up, and then somebody has to show a picture of: what does a high-road leader look like? So what do they look like? Well, high road leaders bring people together.”
