by Stephen Covey – From Effectiveness to Greatness – A Comprehensive Summary

Summary of The 8th Habit



Stephen Covey is cofounder and vice chairman of Franklin Covey, a global professional services firm. Acknowledged by Time Magazine as one of the 25 most influential Americans, Dr. Covey is the author of seven books including
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,
First Things First and
Principle-Centered Leadership. Dr. Covey holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Utah, an MBA from Harvard and a Doctorate from Brigham Young University. He is the recipient of a large number of awards and recently founded the Covey Leadership Center.

It has been 18 years since Stephen Covey began his influential work in different forms like
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, which was an enormously outstanding book. In that book, Dr. Covey taught us how to become as effective as we could be. In
The
8th Habit, he opens up more potential for all – by moving from “effectiveness to greatness.” The world today is different, with more challenges, ambiguity and complexity and the
7 Habits book gives us a clear explanation of all these problems but providing deeper clarification in the next step of – the 8th Habit – The 8th habit of highly effective people is: “Find your voice and inspire others to do likewise.” This latest habit is not an add-on to the original seven habits, but represents another dimension of effectiveness which will enhance the performance of each of the other seven habits.


The 8th Habit answers so many great questions all about the human voice. I believe there are some handy tips to be found in the book. The book is divided into two sections. The first focuses on “finding your voice” and the second on “inspiring others to find theirs.”
