The 17 Indisputable Laws of Teamwork: Embrace Them and Empower Your Team by John C. Maxwell is an essential guide for anyone seeking to build, lead, or improve a successful team. Written by one of the world’s leading leadership experts and a New York Times bestselling author, this book outlines seventeen practical, time-tested principles that apply to teams of every kind — from corporate groups and sports teams to families, churches, and non-profit organisations. Maxwell’s engaging, down-to-earth style makes complex leadership concepts accessible and actionable for readers at every level.
Each chapter focuses on a specific law of teamwork, illustrated through real-world stories and examples. Readers will learn how The Law of High Morale inspired a 50-year-old non-swimmer to tackle the world’s toughest triathlon, how The Law of the Big Picture influenced a U.S. president’s unexpected personal sacrifice, and how The Law of the Scoreboard helped an internet company thrive while others failed. The book also serves as a cautionary tale, showing how neglecting teamwork principles, such as The Law of the Price Tag, led to the downfall of a 128-year-old retail giant.
