The 17 Essential Qualities of a Team Player
is another in a long line of titles by John Maxwell aimed at helping
people attain their personal and leadership potential in the workplace.
The book is organized into short chapters, each devoted to one of the
17 qualities that Maxwell deems essential to a successful and
harmonious workplace, qualities such as competence, discipline,
adaptability, commitment, selflessness, and preparedness. Maxwell's
prose reads like a series of sermons, peppered with inspirational
stories and quotes from personalities as diverse as Vince Lombardi
("The harder you work, the harder it is to surrender") and Henry Ford
("Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success"). The
book is for Maxwell fans and anyone looking for a sensible and
formulaic approach to improving their lot, both at work and in life. --Harry C. Edwards
