Before getting to this week’s Top 10 list, I want to make you aware of the great new book The Aspiring Leader’s Guide to the Future: 9 Surprising Ways Leadership is Changing by Clay Scroggins.
Clay is an incredible speaker, writer, consultant, and former campus pastor of North Point Community Church. First, let me say this – I have had the privilege of promoting a number of Clay’s books and no one provides online influencer swag like Clay!!! This week, UPS delivered what you see above. Included in the package was a Trapper Keeper notebook, some high-quality print deliverables and a complimentary copy of the book. Hey, you take care of Brian Dodd and Brian Dodd will take care of you!!! Well done my friend!
In The Aspiring Leader’s Guide to the Future, Clay uncovers nine counterintuitive axioms of leadership that will help leaders adapt to the rate of change while becoming today’s version of a leader worth following. For every principle of leadership, there is a counter principle that only those knee-deep in the mess of everyday life can understand. With the rapid nature of change happening today, these counter principles provide a new way forward for today’s leaders.

The Top 75 Leadership Quotes From 2021 Part 2 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.
