The 8th Habit - From Effectiveness to Greatness (Paperback, 1st Free Press trade pbk. ed)

The author of "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" urges readers to go beyond effectiveness into a whole other dimension of human experience--the potential for greatness. The world has changed dramatically since the classic, internationally bestselling The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People was published, influencing tens of millions. The challenges and complexity we all face in our relationships, families, professional lives and communities are of an entirely new order of magnitude. In order to thrive, innovate, excel and lead in what Covey calls the new Knowledge Worker Age, we must build on and move beyond effectiveness...to greatness. Accessing the higher levels of human genius and motivation in today's new reality requires a sea change of new thinking -- a new mind-set, a new skill-set, a new tool-set -- in short, a whole new habit.
