Summary: In the more than fifteen years since its publication, the classic The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has become an international phenomenon with over twenty million copies sold. Tens of millions of people have dramatically improved their lives and organisations by applying these principles. The world, though, is a vastly changing place. The challenges and complexity we all face in our relationships, families, professional lives, and communities are of an entirely new order of magnitude. The crucial challenge of our world today is to find our voice, and inspire others to find theirs. It is what Covey calls the 8th Habit. Just as The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People helped us focus on effectiveness, The 8th Habit shows us the way to greatness.
