Before getting to this week’s Top 10 list, I want to tell you about 2 podcasts I was a guest on in the last two weeks. You should check out all of their content. These conversations were a pleasure to participate in and I hope you enjoy them.
- Hangin With AD Podcast – Hangin with the AD is an interview style podcast where Don Baker, Cobb County School District Director of Athletics, partners with Josh Mathews, Pope High School (GA) Athletic Director, to discuss hot topics and lessons learned with leaders in the world of athletics. These leaders include high school athletic directors at the district and local school levels; college athletic administrators; leaders in spaces that connect to athletics such as nutrition, wellness, recruiting, student-athlete recognition; current and former athletes; and others, who can help athletic administrators develop themselves and their programs for a better daily experience for their athletic communities. In episode 46 we discuss a number of books which will make you better leaders and why. This is the first of two interviews we recorded.
- Leading Simple With Rusty George Podcast – Beyond leading Real Life Church, Rusty is a global speaker, leader and teacher focusing on making real-life simple. Rusty has also written several books and regularly writes on his blog. He can also be heard weekly on his podcast, Leading Simple with Rusty George.

The Top 60 Leadership Quotes From 2021 Part 1 is my latest ebook. For many entering a post-pandemic environment, leadership looks completely different than the pre-pandemic world. People are more broken now. They are more uncertain. Fear and anxiousness are unwelcome constant companions. Cultures are more unhealthy. Relationships are more dysfunctional. Hope seems to be in short supply. Every day seems to bring a new hacking, natural disaster, or unexpected calamity.
Therefore, the fundamentals of leadership are more important than ever. The quotes in this book deal with the basics of leadership.

The lessons learned from last year, if applied, will sustain you for years to come.
