THE 8TH HABIT: FROM EFFECTIVENESS TO GREATNESS

In his latest book, Stephen Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Successful People, explains that the new Information/Knowledge Worker Age, exemplified by the Internet, calls for an eighth habit to achieve personal and organizational excellence: "Find your voice and inspire others to find theirs." Covey sees leadership "as a choice to deal with people in a way that will communicate to them their worth and potential so clearly they will come to see it in themselves." His approach starts with developing one's own voice, one's "unique personal significance." The book details how when you find your own voice, you can inspire others and create a workplace where people feel engaged. This includes establishing trust, searching for third alternatives, and developing a shared vision.

 

Read The 8th Habit and discover how you and those around you can rise to greatness.
