Optional materials for this quest.
The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership by John C. Maxwell
RequiredA practical, chapter-by-chapter breakdown of how leadership actually works — not theory, but observable principles. Read alongside your live team project and you will find examples of every law in your own experience.
Project Planning Notebook with Sections
RequiredA structured notebook with dividers keeps your project plan, meeting notes, and leadership log in one place. Physical notes during meetings signal presence and professionalism to your team.
Dare to Lead by Brene Brown
Brown's research-backed take on vulnerability and courage in leadership is the best counterweight to command-and-control styles. Especially useful for the reflection step when you assess your own leadership weaknesses.
