Based on the leadership principles outlined in John C. Maxwell’s book, the workshop is designed to help participants transform setbacks into opportunities for growth and success. The program is intended for aspiring leaders as well as experienced professionals currently serving in leadership roles.

Maxwell, a No. 1 New York Times bestselling author, coach, and speaker, is widely recognized as one of the nation’s foremost leadership authorities. Through this workshop, participants will learn practical strategies for developing resilience, leading through challenges, and fostering personal and organizational growth.
The workshop will be facilitated by Randy Bridges, a certified Maxwell speaker, coach, and trainer. Bridges will guide participants through four key modules:
- See Failure as an Investment
- Keep Success and Failure Together
- Lead Others Through Failure
- Bold Leadership Commitment
Each attendee will receive a participant guide covering all four modules to support notetaking, reflection, and application of the concepts discussed during the session.
“This workshop provides leaders with practical tools to reframe failure, strengthen resilience, and inspire growth within their organizations,” said Darrin Devault, director of DSCC Workforce Development. “Participants will leave with actionable strategies they can apply immediately in both their professional and personal lives.”
