My education on leadership has come from one man, and it's a book, the number one sold book in the history of leadership books, the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, written by the man to my left who also happens to be my hero. We're going to get in the nitty-gritty on leadership here today, everybody, with the number one expert on planet Earth, Mr. John Maxwell. John, welcome back to the show.
Ed, I love you, and I always love being with you, and I love when we get to do stuff together.
I do too. You are my hero, as everybody knows. And my first introduction to you was actually this book. Did you write it to find me or why did you actually write the book?
I wrote it to find myself. A lot of times what we write is for ourselves and then we say, hey, this helped me. Maybe it'll go help someone else. But I wrote the 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. Interestingly enough, the idea came on a golf course. You and I love to play golf. I was playing golf with one of my publishers.
And he said, John, I just finished reading a book on the laws of management. And he said, it was a terrific book. So I said, Victor, I wanna write a book on the laws of leadership. And then I began to ask myself, okay, what really makes a law? Because, I mean, you can have a good principle, you can have a good thought on leadership, but the word law kind of gives gravitas.
It's kind of like, this is kind of bigger than a principle. So I, first of all, developed kind of a grid. What would be a law of leadership? And it has to be obviously about leadership, but it has to be, for example, timeless. If it's truly a law, I mean, the law of gravity, it's the law. I mean, it doesn't come in and go out with time. So it has to be timeless.
