John C. Maxwell takes the pain out of knowing what makes a team tick. If you want to have a better team, you have to develop better players.
The qualities Maxwell teaches quickly take you to the heart of teamwork. Anybody can understand them and apply them-whether at home, on the job, at church, or on the ball field. If you learn the seventeen essential qualities of a team player, you can become the kind of person every team wants. If everyone on your team does it, there will be no holding you back.

October 12, 2007: This brief, inspirational book uses a now-classic formula for texts on selling and leadership, although its focus on cooperation and following the leader is unusual. Each chapter starts with a short anecdote about a historic figure?s accomplishments, and his or her triumph over adversity. The vignettes demonstrate the lessons that author John C. Maxwell then briefly discusses in the rest of the chapter. The ?laws? the author promulgates benefit from the stories? afterglow and are less important than the stories themselves. Memorable quotations and sidebars that support the author?s main points round off each lesson. Maxwell is an expert at wielding this formula, perhaps because he helped make it a classic, and a star in the inspirational self-help genre. We recommend his book as a pick-me-up for team members and aspiring leaders.
