The Bookends of Success

What sets great leaders apart in times of crisis and change? In this week's episode, John shares a powerful insight he gained from Chick-fil-A chairman Dan Cathy on the importance of self-awareness and situational awareness for leaders — especially in tough times! 
 
After his lesson, Mark Cole and Chris Goede discuss practical ways to cultivate these awarenesses as a leader. They explore how seeking honest feedback, asking thoughtful questions, and learning from role models can expand your leadership capacity.
 
Key takeaways: 
 • 

Self-awareness doesn't happen in isolation—it requires the courage to invite feedback from others and the humility to receive it. 
 • 
 • 

Before you can lead yourself effectively, you must first know yourself authentically. Self-awareness precedes situational awareness. 
 • 
 • 

Situational awareness grows through experience, but you can accelerate it by asking "What would a leader I admire do in this situation?" and seeking input from trusted mentors.

Why Self-Awareness Sets Great Leaders Apart

Brené Brown said, "Perfectionism is a twenty-ton shield that we lug around thinking it will protect us when, in fact, it's the thing that's really preventing us from taking flight." And in this week's episode, John Maxwell is showing how that's true — and how acknowledging your flaws frees you to become a high road leader. 
 
After his lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow explore practical ways to develop self-compassion, laugh at yourself, and believe in your unique potential, so you can apply John's insights to your life and leadership. 
 
 Key takeaways: 
 Confident humility allows you to believe in yourself while still questioning your strategies. If you don't show yourself kindness, you won't be able to extend it to anyone else. The world needs you to embrace your humanness and step fully into your unique leadership greatness.
