Russell De Vos
Greetings! My name is Russ De Vos, and I am the proud husband of Heather and the father of Sam (19), Lily (17) and Simon (15), and it is daily, with these 4 amazing individuals, that I get to work on self-leadership, working out, in my own "home laboratory", the principles that I teach and coach.
Drinking coffee with my wife while touring her beautiful garden, reading, eating international food (most recently Ethiopian), traveling the world, exploring the Puget Sound by boat, coaching wrestling, and preaching and teaching the Bible are some of my great loves!
I joined the John Maxwell Team for one main reason: I love to win!...but even more, I love to empower and equip others to win!! I have had the great privilege of standing on the top of the podium in several arenas...BUT...these pale in comparison to helping someone else get there! To be able to serve you powerfully, support you passionately, and watch you go from crawling, to walking, to running to soaring...is EXHILARATING! Whether it be coaching, speaking, training or serving in another capacity, this is what truly invigorates, thrills and ignites me!!
