HAD TO SHARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How to Tell a Player apart from a Pretender by: John C. Maxwell If youve ever led people, youve come across followers who would rather act the part than do their part. On the surface, they appear to be productive members of the team. But if you look closely, youll see cracks in their façade. These people are pretenders. Pretenders do everything they can to look like players. In fact, theyre motivated more by appearing productive than by being productive. With them on a team, momentum suffers and relationships are compromised. They cant be trusted to do the work, because theyre so focused on how they appear. Fortunately, there are subtle ways to tell a player from a pretender. Here is my guiding principle: Pretenders look the part, talk the part, and claim the part, but fall short of fulfilling the part.
