Everyone Communicates, Few Connect by John C. Maxwell

This is the third John Maxwell's book that I read on the topic of leadership. I usually like reading Maxwell's books because of his excellent skills in engaging, motivating his audiences and giving suggestions in a very straight forward manner.

In this book, Maxwell discusses abot how one can communicate and connect with others effectively to reach his potentials. Even though I found nothing new from this book, Maxwell does not disappoint, as he has some good ideas, although some part of the book can be dry. He gives a lot of good, practical advices in this book through many anecdotes that people can relate to. He offers five connecting principles and five connecting practices to make better connections. I know that I will be trying some of the points and practices.  Overall, I would recommend this book, but I have read better books on leadership and communication.

I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
