Critic Reviews

"Highly recommended! In my experience, the ability to identify and develop leaders is a critical trait to any high-performing business. John Maxwell skillfully lays the groundwork on how to create a virtuous cycle where leaders are developed and then encouraged to foster new leaders." Joel Peterson, Chairman of JetBlue Airways

"John Maxwell hits the nail on the head in The Leader's Greatest Return. Much of our long-term success at Paychex has stemmed from our ability to attract, hire, and develop great leaders. I highly recommend this book for leaders seeking to develop this essential characteristic in their own organization." Thomas Golisano, founder and Chairman of the Board, Paychex, Inc.

"Rachel and I are living examples of John's belief in the compounding value of developing leaders. By sitting at John's leadership development table, we've been able to expand our own organization by developing the leaders who will carry The Hollis Co. forward." Dave Hollis, CEO, The Hollis Co. and author of Get Out of Your Own Way

A gem!

Great having the author narrate as he added additional insight following release of the written version. Excellent insights on equipping, reproducing leaders & compounding return on investment. The kind of book you could go back to time & time again with new applications.
