Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description
From the author that brought you the New York Times bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People comes a foundational guide to leadership.

In Principle Centered Leadership, Stephen R. Covey delves deep into the essential qualities needed to thrive in today’s ever-changing world. Unlike other leadership guides that focus solely on short-term gains or superficial tactics, Covey presents a holistic approach that focuses on long-term success and integrity. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to foster strong, principle-based leadership in both their personal and professional lives.

How do individuals and organisations survive and thrive amid tremendous change?

Why are efforts to improve organisations failing despite the millions of dollars in time, capital, and human effort being spent on them?

How do we unleash creativity, talent, and energy within ourselves—and others—in the midst of pressure?

Is it realistic to believe that balance among personal, family, and professional life is possible?

In his compelling narrative, Stephen R. Covey demonstrates that the answer to these and other dilemmas is principle-centered leadership, a long-term, inside-out approach to developing people and organisations. He argues that by rooting our practices in core principles, we create a firm foundation that withstands external pressures and uncertainties. The book provides insightful guidelines for applying these principles consistently at work and at home, ultimately leading to heightened quality, productivity, and personal fulfilment.

Dr. Covey sees principle-centred leadership as the key to fostering genuine trust, respect, and teamwork. He offers a wealth of practical strategies that help leaders of all kinds build strong, lasting relationships. These strategies are aimed not just at improving efficiency, but also at enhancing the well-being and satisfaction of everyone involved.

One of the book's greatest strengths lies in its blend of theoretical insights and practical applications. Covey provides concrete steps and real-life examples to illustrate how principle-centred leadership can be implemented, making it a useful tool for managers, executives, and anyone interested in personal development.

By the end of Principle Centered Leadership, readers will have a clearer understanding of how to foster a balanced, rewarding, and effective life. Whether you are at the helm of a vast organisation or simply looking to lead your own life more effectively, Stephen R. Covey’s insights will inspire and guide you towards a brighter, more principled future.
