From the author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People comes a book on thoughtful insight into successful marriages. There are certain fundamental principles that govern in all human interactions and living in harmony with those principles or natural laws is absolutely essential for quality family life. Dr. Stephen R. Covey has watched over the past fifty years how the situation for marriage and family has changed powerfully and dramatically. The desire to create a strong marriage and family is not enough. We need a new mind-set, a new skill-set and a new tool-set to deal with the change. The challenge has taken a quantum leap, and if we are to respond effectively, so must we. The 7 Habits framework represents just such a mind-set and skill-set. Many couples and families are using the principles in the 7 Habits framework to grow stronger and stay on track. In this audio program, Dr. Stephen R. Covey and his wife Sandra—along with his brother Dr. John M.R. Covey and his wife Jane Parrish Covey—offer insights and personal experiences in applying these proven principles to marriage and home.

With the same profound insight, simplicity, and practical wisdom that propelled The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People to worldwide acclaim, Stephen R. Covey now focuses on the primary concern of society today—family. True Happiness does not come from possessions or fame; it comes from the quality of your relationships with the people you love and respect. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families will help you find the answers to such common family challenges as: -How can you move from a “me” to a “we” spirit in the family when almost everything around us rewards “me”? -How can you have quality time for the family when both parents (or the only parent) are working simply to keep food on the table? -How can you build harmony in the family when everyone is criticizing and putting one another down? -How can you get your children to do their jobs and homework cheerfully, without being reminded or bribed?

Das Ergebnis: verbesserte Produktivität durch richtige Planung. Als Führungskraft erfahren Sie, wie Sie Ihren Mitarbeitern vermitteln, Prioritäten zu identifizieren, mit Ablenkungen umzugehen und die Informationsflut zu managen. Nicht zuletzt geht es auch darum, die Anforderungen in Arbeit und Privatleben auszubalancieren.

"The greatest value of the process is not what it does to your schedule, but what it does to your head." Stephen R. Covey

Die 7 Wege zur Effektivität

Stephen R. Covey øser i denne bog af sine erfaringer med konfliktløsning. I enhver konflikt er der enten “min måde” eller “din måde” at løse problemet på. Covey viser os her en 3. og alternativ vej. Han løfter konflikten op på et højere niveau, hvor begge parter opnår noget og hvor begge parter vinder. Alle de problemer, vi møder i vores hverdag store som små, på arbejde eller hjemme, kan løses ved hjælp af denne 3. vej. Ved ikke at låse sig fast på et perspektiv, men åbne op for alternative og samtidig brugbare løsninger, får vi to vindere ud af enhver konflikt. Covey skriver selv: ”for at kunne løse vores vanskeligste problemer er vi nødt til at ændre vores tankegang drastisk – og det er det, denne bog handler om.”

7 gode vaner (kort udgave)

Een fundament voor tijdloos leiderschap, gebouwd op vertrouwen en heldere doelen. Ontdek hoe sterke bedrijven excelleren door eenvoud, ook in turbulente tijden. Als je op één ding kunt vertrouwen in het bedrijfsleven, is het onzekerheid. Het lukt lang niet alle bedrijven om op koers te blijven door de woelige baren van de economische realiteit. In zijn nieuwe boek beschrijft Stephen R. Covey de volgende vier managementprincipes die in goede en slechte tijden tot gegarandeerd goede resultaten leiden: 1 Excellente uitvoering: de sterkste bedrijven hebben eenvoudige doelen, vertaald in heldere ijkpunten die consequent worden nagestreefd. Elk teamlid kent zijn aandeel in het streven en voert zijn werk volgens die ijkpunten uit. 2 Een goede vertrouwensbasis met alle stakeholders:vertrouwen verhoogt je slagkracht en verlaagt je kosten, vooral in roerige tijden.3 Maximalisatie in plaats van efficiëntie: de sterkste bedrijven richten zich op waardevermeerdering in plaats van kostenefficiëntie.4 Betrokkenheid in plaats van angst: onzekerheid verminderen gaat ten koste van je focus. Geef uw medewerkers een missie en een strategie die ze zich eigen kunnen maken, dan zetten ze hun angst om in betrokkenheid.4 managementprincipes voor gegarandeerde resultaten is een toegankelijk boek voor elke manager die met heldere richtlijnen tot duurzaam goede resultaten wil komen.

4 managementprincipes voor gegarandeerde resultaten

Ontdek hoe conflicten transformeren in kansen wanneer we voorbij 'jouw' of 'mijn' gelijk durven kijken. Een gids naar doorbraken die iedereen verrijken. Veel conflicten op het werk, in het gezin of in de politiek slepen zich voort omdat beide partijen aan hun eigen standpunt vasthouden. Elke partij wil de andere niet echt serieus nemen en vreest zichzelf te verliezen als hij toegeeft. Stephen Covey leert ons in Het 3de alternatief dat er meer mogelijk is dan jouw manier of mijn manier. Hij bouwt daarbij voort op het in De zeven eigenschappen geïntroduceerde concept van synergie. Als synergie serieus wordt nagestreefd en Covey geeft in dit boek talloze voorbeelden van hoe dat kan, op kleine en grote schaal zijn er grote en grootse doorbraken mogelijk. Alles begint met een open, accepterende houding ten aanzien van de ander en het op waarde schatten van diens opvattingen. Covey laat in dit boek zien dat echte, duurzame oplossingen,of ze nu op het werk, in relaties of op wereldniveau nodig zijn, alleen mogelijk zijn als we het ik versus jou-denken loslaten en gezamenlijk op zoek gaan naar het derde alternatief: geen compromis maar een nieuwe uitkomst waar iedereen beter van wordt.

Het derde alternatief

Leer de focus te houden op wat echt belangrijk is en weloverwogen keuzes te maken die gebaseerd zijn op jouw eigen waarden en principes. Heb je wel eens het gevoel dat je je een slag in de rondte werkt en toch constant in tijdnood verkeert? Dat vrienden en familie meer aandacht vragen, terwijl je nauwelijks tijd hebt voor jezelf Stephen Covey beantwoordt in dit boek de vraag hoe het komt dat we de prioriteiten in ons leven toch maar zo zelden op de eerste plaats laten komen. Jarenlang zijn ons methodes en technieken aangereikt om efficiënt met onze tijd om te gaan. Als we maar hard genoeg werken en leren kunnen we alles beter en sneller doen. Maar vaak is dat niet genoeg, en dan nemen de schuldgevoelens alleen maar toe Timemanagement volgens Covey biedt een heldere methode gebaseerd op principes, niet op tips en trucs. Daarmee kun je de focus houden op wat echt belangrijk is, een goede werk-privébalans hanteren en afgewogen keuzes maken. Wie met Covey het probleem bij de wortel aanpakt, hoeft zich nooit meer af te vragen of hij met de verkeerde zaken bezig is. Dan is timemanagement niet meer een kwestie van tijd maar van prioriteit.

Timemanagement volgens Covey

“With his trademark clarity, Covey emphasizes the importance of integrity and intrinsic rewards. Primary Greatness is an ideal book for anyone looking for guidance in how to live a truly successful, worthwhile life of service.”—Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us and When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing For fans of Principles, Grit, and The Power of Habit, Primary Greatness outlines the twelve levers of success—a set of principles for achieving a happy and fulfilling life. Many of us are hurting. We have chronic problems, dissatisfactions, and disappointments. We feel overwhelmed by burdens we carry. The idea of living a “great life” can seem like a distant dream. Stephen R. Covey—the late, legendary author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People—believed there were only two ways to experience life: primary greatness or secondary greatness. Through his books and speaking, he taught that the intrinsic rewards of primary greatness—integrity, responsibility, and contribution—far outweighed the extrinsic rewards of secondary greatness: money, popularity, and the self-absorbed, pleasure-ridden life that some people consider “success.” In this posthumous work, Covey lays out clearly the 12 levers of success that will lead to a life of primary greatness: Integrity, Contribution, Priority, Sacrifice, Service, Responsibility, Loyalty, Reciprocity, Diversity, Learning, Teaching, and Renewal. For the first time, Covey defines each of these 12 qualities and how they can be leveraged in your daily life to lead you to both professional success and personal happiness. Featuring his trademarked wisdom that has inspired countless readers and leaders, Primary Greatness once again delivers classic Covey advice in a concise and reader-friendly way. .

The Wisdom and Teachings of Stephen R. Covey

From the multimillion-copy bestselling author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, hailed as the #1 Most Influential Business Book of the Twentieth Century, The 3rd Alternative introduces a breakthrough approach to conflict resolution and creative problem solving. There are many methods of “conflict resolution,” but most involve compromise, a low-level accommodation that stops the fight without breaking through to new and innovative results. The 3rd Alternative introduces a breakthrough approach to conflict resolution and creative problem solving, transcending traditional solutions to conflict by forging a path toward a third option. A third alternative moves beyond your way or my way to a higher and better way—one that allows both parties to emerge from debate or even heated conflict in a far better place than either had envisioned. With the third alternative, nobody has to give up anything, and everyone wins. Through key examples and stories from his work as a consultant, Covey demonstrates the power of 3rd Alternative thinking. His wide-ranging examples include a Canadian metropolitan police force that transformed a crime-plagued community; a judge who brought a quick, peaceful end to one of the biggest environmental lawsuits in American history without setting foot in a courtroom; the principal of a high school for children of migrant workers who raised their graduation rate from 30 percent to 90 percent; a handful of little-known people who are quietly finding new ways to bring peace to the Middle East; and many others. These various groups and individuals offer living examples of how to create new and better results instead of escalating conflict, as well as how to build strong relationships based on an attitude of winning together. Beyond conflict and compromise, The 3rd Alternative unveils a radical, creative new way of thinking.

The 3rd Alternative

The essential companion workbook to the bestseller The 8th Habit. From Stephen R. Covey, bestselling author of The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness, comes the accompanying personal workbook that will help you further realize the power of this new habit.

The 8th Habit will transform the way you think about yourself and your purpose in life, about your organization and about humankind.

Building Family Relationships

I'm getting more done in less time, but where are the rich relationships, the inner peace, the balance, the confidence that I'm doing what matters most and doing it well? Does this nagging question haunt you, even when you feel you are being your most efficient? If so, First Things First can help you understand why we so often prioritize things that are unimportant to both our larger goals and our inner happiness. From the author that brought you the New York Times bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People comes a guide to building your work on the principles of effectiveness so that your life can spent cultivating genuine relationships, investing in pursuits you enjoy, and achieving balance in both your personal and professional lives. In First Things First, Stephen M. R. Covey advocates categorizing tasks by urgency and importance so that you can focus on what actually needs to be done in the limited amount of time that you have. Using personal examples and insight from years of business experience, he argues for a new way of looking at your “to-do” list. Rather than offering you another clock, First Things First provides you with a compass, because where you're headed is more important than how fast you're going.
