​The Domino Effect (Part 1)

One of John Maxwell’s favorite leadership exercises is his year-end review. This is the time John takes every year to reflect on what he’s learned, what worked, and what needs to change. In the spirit of reflection, we put this series together to set you up for your own year-end review.

We’re calling this series The Domino Effect because John is going to walk you through the areas of your life that affect everything else. And you know what? It all starts with thinking and reflection. We hope this series puts into perspective the value of reflection, because reflection turns experience into insight.

At the end of John’s lesson, Mark and Richard pick up the discussion on the importance of change in light of The Domino Effect.

If you want to begin the next year more equipped to make the necessary changes in your life and your organization, don’t miss this episode. And mark your calendar for part two, which releases next week.

Our BONUS resource for this series is The Domino Effect Worksheet, which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John’s teaching. You can download the worksheet by clicking “Download the Bonus Resource” below.
