Publisher's summary

How do we as individuals and organizations survive amid tremendous change? Why are efforts to improve falling so short in real results despite the millions of dollars in time, capital, and human effort being spent on them? How do we unleash the 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?

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 organizations. The key to dealing with the challenges that face us today is the recognition of a principle-centered core within both ourselves and our organizations. Dr. Covey offers insights and guidelines that can help you apply these principles both at work and at home, leading to not just a new understanding of how to increase quality and productivity, but also to a new appreciation of the importance of building personal and professional relationships in order to enjoy a more balanced, more rewarding, and more effective life.

Principle-Centered Leadership - Review

I have listened to this again and again, getting new tidbits each time, learning and growing. I am not in a supervisory position, but have gained great knowledge of how to treat my peers, friends and family. A must read / listen for people in leadership capacity.

Highly recommend a quiet mind to mediate on this.

I love when a ( Good performing) author reads his own work. Gives it more passion.
Fantastic. Take as much time to digest it all, as it took to read it though.

In depth study of effective leadership

Liked it because he dictated it and explained concepts through the use of examples. This made it easier to apply and understand.
