The first of three epic instalments in director Peter Jackson's
blockbuster prequel to 'The Lord of the Rings' trilogy. Set in
Middle-Earth 60 years before events in 'The Lord of the Rings', the
story follows the adventures of Hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Martin
Freeman), who, at the instigation of the wizard Gandalf (Ian
McKellen), suddenly finds himself co-opted into joining a company
of 13 Dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield (Richard Armitage) to help
reclaim the Dwarves' lost kingdom of the Lonely Mountain from the
clutches of Smaug the dragon. After setting out on their quest from
the safety of Bag End, the band of travellers soon find themselves
pitted against a range of strange and fearsome opponents, in
addition to a small, slimy creature known simply as Gollum (Andy
Serkis).
We often treat the word capacity as if it were a natural law of
limitation. Unfortunately, most of us are much more comfortable
defining what we perceive as off limits rather than what's really
possible. Could it be that many of us have failed to expand our
potential because we have allowed what we perceive as capacity to
define us? What if our limits are not really our limits?
In his newest book, No Limits: Blow the Cap Off Your Capacity, John
Maxwell identifies 17 core capacities. Some of these are abilities we
all already possess, such as energy, creativity and leadership. Others
are aspects of our lives controlled by our choices, like our attitudes,
character, and intentionality. Maxwell examines each of these
capacities, and provides clear and actionable advice on how you can
increase your potential in each. He will guide you on how to identify,
grow, and apply your critical capacities. Once you've blown the "cap"
off your capacities, you'll find yourself more successful -- and
fulfilled -- in your daily life.
As one of America’s foremost experts on leadership, Dr. John C. Maxwell believes that people need to master skills in four areas if they want to be successful. In The 4 Pillars of Leadership, these four crucial areas are called the four pillars, because they are key features of successful leadership.
The four pillars are:
- Relationships: connecting with others
- Equipping: helping others to achieve their potential
- Attitude: make or break ingredient of success
- Leadership: influence others around you
The 4 Pillars of Leadership asks questions such as: How can I gain the trust of others? What is my most important relationship? Whom should I equip? How can I inspire others to excel? How can I grow as a leader? How does attitude influence leadership?
The answers to these questions will show you how positive, goal-oriented leadership can make you stand out in your organization, and how your leadership skills will help you to go all the way to the top.
