Listen to Fatal Flaws of a Leader (Part 2)

In this series, John Maxwell shares the six fatal flaws of a leader. Whether you define the top as a professional position or a personal best, a leader who overlooks these traits will never make it to the top. John defines the first three fatal flaws of a leader as a lack of sensitivity towards people, a betrayal of trust, and the inability to develop people.

Mark Cole candidly shares recent experiences that relate to each of these flaws, and he helps us see how they can play out in our everyday experiences if we’re not careful. Then Richard Chancy jumps in and provides a practical five-point plan for developing leaders. Mark and Richard ended the hour with a challenge to use the next week to think through which fatal flaw we need to address. Then tell someone about it and take action!
