Chris Robinson of Maxwell Leadership Launches Bold New Book to Help High Performers Break Free from Complacency

Chris Robinson, Executive Vice President of Maxwell Leadership, announces the release of his highly anticipated book, “From Drift to Drive: A High Achiever’s Guide to Breaking the Chains of Complacency.” Available nationwide beginning September 2, the book equips high performers—entrepreneurs, executives, franchise owners, and growth-minded professionals—with a proven framework to escape success-induced stagnation and reclaim forward momentum in life and leadership.

Drawing from more than two decades of global leadership coaching and personal experience, Robinson identifies the hidden patterns that lead even the most accomplished professionals to coast—what he calls “drift.” In a culture that rewards hustle and productivity, “From Drift to Drive” delivers a refreshing and much-needed wake-up call: motion isn’t progress, and success doesn’t guarantee fulfillment.

At the core of the book is Robinson’s powerful 7-step Drift to Drive Framework, a practical and actionable roadmap to help readers:

• Recognize where complacency is quietly undermining growth
• Reconnect with clarity, urgency, and long-term vision
• Build habits, relationships, and strategies that sustain momentum
• Transform internal drive into real-world results—without burnout

“This book is a blueprint for those ready to take control of their lives and stop being passive passengers,” said Eric Thomas, PhD, motivational speaker and author of You Owe You. “If you’re ready to go from drift to drive, this book will give you the fuel to get there.”

“From Drift to Drive” has already earned the endorsement of leadership expert and mentor Dr. John C. Maxwell, who wrote the foreword for the book. “A decision to take action, to grow, and to refuse to let complacency have the final say. That’s what this book is about. And there’s no one better to guide you through it than my friend, Chris Robinson.”

As Executive Vice President of Maxwell Leadership, Robinson has trained and empowered thousands of leaders across industries, blending motivational insight with real-world tools. The release of “From Drift to Drive” marks a significant milestone in Robinson’s mission to equip high achievers not just to perform—but to lead with intention, clarity, and sustained excellence.

To further support the book’s message, Robinson will also host a live virtual summit featuring guest speakers and leadership experts, exclusively for those who purchase the book. The event will offer deeper insights into the framework, live coaching, and community engagement opportunities.

“From Drift to Drive” is available for pre-order now at DriftToDriveBook.com and will be released in hardcover, eBook, and audiobook formats on September 2, 2025.
