About The Book
The No. 1 Most Influential Business Book of the Twentieth Century
'[Thirty] years after it first appeared, the wisdom of The 7 Habits is more relevant than ever . . . exactly what we need now' Arianna Huffington
Considered one of the most inspiring books ever written, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has guided generations of readers for the past three decades. Presidents and CEOs have kept it by their bedsides, students have underlined and studied passages from it, teachers and parents have drawn from it, and individuals of all ages and occupations have used its step-by-step pathway to adapt to change and take advantage of the opportunities that change creates. Now this thirtieth anniversary edition of the timeless classic commemorates the wisdom of the 7 habits with fresh insights from Sean Covey.
They are:
Habit 1: Be Proactive
Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind
Habit 3: Put First Things First
Habit 4: Think Win/Win
Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood
Habit 6: Synergise
Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw
With penetrating insights and practical anecdotes, Stephen R. Covey reveals a step-by-step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity - principles that give us the security to adapt to change and the wisdom and power to take advantage of the opportunities that change creates.
