The Law of Empowerment John Maxwell's Law of Empowerment says that only secure leaders give power to others. But what does it mean to be secure? Using the analogy of personal finance, let's look at what's missing from the lives of insecure leaders and illustrate why security matters. I believe we are all familiar with the terms pauper, debtor, and hoarder, and in this context none of them have any capacity to give to others (financially). Here's why: • Paupers have no source of income aside from the financial assistance they receive from someone else. Penniless and depen- dent, they're clearly unable to help others financially. Leaders without purpose are like paupers. ey have no passion, low energy, and little drive to grow in influence. Usually, their only source of power is the position they have been given by somebody else. In terms of personal authority, they're impoverished.
