This is pure gold This is pure gold. I have a lifelong community (John Maxwell Team) to keep me learning and growing as a leader so that I can develop and add value to others. Leadership is inflence, nothing more, nothing less. What I am learning allows me to build stronger relationships and teams in both my personal and professional life. The world needs this. We need to have big picture thinking and a systems perspective to collaborate across boundaries. Be part of this team to make this world a better place.

They started sending me spam out of… They started sending me spam out of nowhere. And they just don’t stop. They used the real spelling of my name which I never disclose online which makes me believe they bought an illegal mailing list from somewhere.

John Maxwell Team John Maxwell Team is a great community, however it works best if you are in a USA time Zone. Being out that time zone makes it difficult to participate in real time.

Has the JMT lost sight of its mission Has the JMT lost sight of its mission? Sadly, it seems as the mission is more about building checkbooks than serving others. It is heartbreaking. I really believed that this was different and yet greed seems to have outweighed service. It has become more about pay to play. We are taught to "avoid the shiny object" syndrome however at each turn we are being asked to spend more to get more. We are taught "we are enough" yet in order to be enough we are to buy another class or program or position. Access to certain "privileges" is purchased and then the bar is raised so more money is required to obtain the same access. The leadership team is changing without sufficient explanation. We build a relationship with someone and then they are gone. Is this also a money thing? Are other "leaders" being brought in at half the price? Finally, the leadership does not reflect the demographics of the group. Women are over represented in support roles and not in leadership positions even though the demographics of the group are likely to be a 50/50 split male to female. A classic patriarchal organization. Another disappointing fact about the JMT. On the bright side, I have met some of the most amazing people in my life. Highly motivated to change the world. For me, the greatest value has been the people I've met and the impact they are having. John C. Maxwell is one of the most amazing men I know. An outstanding leader, story teller and speaker. Is this the legacy he wants to leave?

Joining mentorship I was thinking of joining mentorship and my john maxwell friend in colo sprgs suggested it. I waited for my funds to transfer as it is the last of my savings and then i went bback in to the conference. When i got back the push for this was almost a pressure...it honestly was a turn off. Left me wondering if this investment was going to be all it talked about. I certainly hope so.
