John C. Maxwell
I’ve spent the last 40 years inspiring and challenging people from numerous Fortune 500 companies, national trade associations, nonprofits, and educational institutions to grow, change, and find their passion.
Every year I have the opportunity to speak to people around the world about the life-changing principles and defining moments that have impacted my life. There’s nothing like making the human connection and forming new relationships and bonds.
Speaking is really my first passion. I love challenging and motivating audiences with real-life stories and timeless principles that I always back with actionable steps.
I tailor each presentation to the needs of my specific audience, and I always give practical steps for them to live out what they learn.
I’ve also authored more than 100 books on the topics of leadership, capacity, teamwork, relationships, attitude, success, personal growth, and communication.
