John C. Maxwell

Now available in trade paperback, #1 New York Times bestselling author John C. Maxwell teaches readers how to turn every loss into a learning experience. John Maxwell believes that any setback, whether professional or personal, can be turned into a step forward when you possess the right tools to turn a loss into a gain. Drawing on nearly fifty years of leadership experience, Dr. Maxwell provides a roadmap for winning by examining the eleven elements that constitute the DNA of learners who succeed in the face of problems, failure, and losses.
