Synopsis

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 world has changed dramatically since Covey's classic The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People was published. The challenges we all face in our relationships, families, professional lives and communities are of an entirely new order of magnitude. In order to thrive in what Covey calls the new Knowledge Worker Age, we need to build on and move beyond effectiveness—to greatness. Accessing the higher reaches of human genius and motivation in today's reality requires a whole new habit.

The questionnaires, tests, self-assessments, and other exercises in this workbook provide a hands-on approach to developing the mind-set, skill-set and tool-set for achieving greatness in the Knowledge Worker Age. The 8th Habit will transform the way you think about yourself and your purpose in life, about your organization and about humankind.

Goodreads review by Yousif on January 03, 2018

I have read the "7 Habits" in 2006 and was taken aback by the insights of the book. I also went on and read some of his other books "Principle-centered Leadership" and "First Things First". These are two great books too but you start encounter some repetition. Three/four years back, I was gifted "Th......more

At last I've finished! Below is my last installment. I'm reading this and "teaching" it: that is, talking and writing about what I'm learning, as I go along, as part of the 8th Habit challenge to solidify the ideas in my head. Condensed, the 8th Habit is "Find your voice and inspire others to find th......more

Goodreads review by EstelleLiterature on March 11, 2025

As the book's title itself says, it's a step from effectiveness to greatness: that is, from the functional dimension to the spiritual; in this case, not just personal but also interpersonal; and that's where, I believe, the dimension of common values enter to ensure and sustain growth. I'll try to e......more
