Submit ReviewAs John Maxwell says in today’s lesson, “The more we grow, the more we know we need to grow.” As we develop ourselves, our awareness of the areas in which we need to improve expands. So, in today’s episode, John teaches something that author Ken Blanchard calls “the four development levels that move people from dependence to independence.”
In other words, these are the stages through which we become less dependent on what got us here and more focused on what will take us there. After John’s lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede discuss their own journeys from dependence to independence and how they are applying these principles at Maxwell Leadership.
Our BONUS resource for this episode is the “Dependence to Independence Worksheet,” which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John’s teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Independent and clicking “Download the Bonus Resource.”

John Maxwell says, “Leadership is influence––nothing more, nothing less.” Carly Fiorina says, “Leadership is problem solving.” John Quincy Adams said a leader is someone whose actions “inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more.” In other words, one of the greatest skills leaders possess is the ability to get things done––the ability to mobilize people and resources to achieve a common goal.
So, in today’s episode, we’re sharing a lesson from John Maxwell in which John teaches on the three main things that leaders make happen in order to achieve results. After John’s teaching, Mark Cole will be joined by Chris Goede to discuss John’s three points and how they actively apply them at Maxwell Leadership.

The Difference Maker by John C. Maxwell
Relevant Episode: Transferring the Vision to the Heart and the Head
When it comes to life and leadership, one of the wisest pieces of advice comes from John Maxwell: "You have to start with yourself." At first glance, this idea might seem counterintuitive. We often associate growth and progress with working on our relationships, our career, or our finances. However, John says that these achievements are all rooted in intentionally developing ourselves. Afterall, we cannot give what we do not have. John teaches that success begins with understanding ourselves and knowing our purpose, vision, and values. We must become the kind of person who can fulfill those ambitions and bring them to reality.
So, in this week’s episode, John Maxwell shares some simple and timeless truths about why we need to start with ourselves. Then, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow discuss John’s lesson, how they’re applying it to their own life and leadership, and why starting with yourself can even build resilience during the toughest leadership seasons.

Today, you’re going to learn how to bridge relational and perspective gaps between you and the people you lead. In this episode, John Maxwell shares one of the principles from his book Leadershift. This principle is called the Communication Shift, which is the shift from directing people to connecting with people. One key component of this shift is the ability to find common ground. This is a tool that has the potential to take your leadership to the next level. You see, we have more in common than we have differences. But somehow, our differences tend to take precedent over our similarities––creating obstacles and ripples at work and in our leadership.
After John’s lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede discuss how they find common ground with those they lead in order to create alignment on their teams. They also share the aspects of this lesson that are most difficult for them, and they challenge you to join them during their growth journeys.
