The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness (The Covey Habits Series)

Over half a million copies sold.

From the author that brought you the New York Times bestseller The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People comes a guide to accessing and encouraging the human potential for greatness.

In the more than twenty-five years since its publication, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has become an international phenomenon with more than twenty-five million copies sold. Tens of millions of people in business, government, and schools have dramatically improved their lives and organizations by applying the principles of Stephen R. Coveyâ€™s classic book.

The world, however, is a vastly changed place. Being effective as individuals and organizations is no longer merely an optionâ€”itâ€™s a requirement for survival. But in order to thrive, innovate, excel, and lead in what Covey calls the â€œNew Knowledge Worker Age,â€ we must build on and move beyond effectiveness. In this era of human history, our call is for greatnessâ€”holistic fulfillment, passionate execution, and significant contribution.

Accessing the higher levels of human genius in todayâ€™s new reality requires a change in thinking: a new mindset and a new skill-setâ€”in short, a new habit. The crucial challenge of our world today is this: to find our voice and inspire others to find theirs. It is what Covey calls the 8th Habit. The 8th Habit is the answer to the soulâ€™s yearning for greatness, the organizationâ€™s imperative for significance and superior results, and humanityâ€™s search for its â€œvoice.â€

Coveyâ€™s books have transformed the way we think about ourselves, our purpose in life, our organizations, and about humankind. Just as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People helped us focus on effectiveness, The 8th Habit shows us the way to greatness.
