- Stephen R. Covey, from the eighth habit: from
Achievement to greatness
A rare public appearance at the Mississauga Living Arts Center, the author of the world-renowned leadership authority and the international bestseller "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", was named "
] Influential business books, Dr. Stephen R. Covey made a speech in his latest book "The Eighth Habit: From Validity to Greatness"
.
This lively legend Characters and world idols, with their calm energy and grace, have taught principle-centered leadership for more than forty years, and have concentrated on embodying the great summoning and winning the respect of the audience - as an image of grandfathers releasing human potential. Generation
Dr. Covey is the hero of millions of people, and his famous works center around helping people to absorb seasoned ideas, philosophy and principles and refining them into People can use the easy-to-use everyday habits of the world, and in the inspirational speech of the Living Arts Center, he expressed the simple and very powerful wisdom treasure that I think is practical and useful.For example, if you want your child to develop A love of
for learning. Never again fail to do their homework because they did not do their homework. They just asked them when they would return from school. "Teach me what I learned today. "Using this simple habit, Covey claims that he never encountered a problem and encouraged his child to learn because teaching is the best way to learn.
Another gems he talks about are listening through resonance To understand the habit of seeking understanding before, in the audience of more than 800 people, he asked how many people had received formal hearing training, and only 13 hands revealed that we live in my self-centeredness in my self-my-my culture. Victoria is associated with how many Native Indian tribes use so-called talking stickers for all meetings
The person holding the TalkingStick is the only person who is allowed to speak until he or she can understand it; when the owner of the talking stick fully understands Then, then
and only then, the conversation bar will be passed on to the next person. This creates an incredible understanding and synergy in the team. Every company will do well
There is a talking stick!
Covey next talks about the key to his message, that is, by finding his voice and helping other people
The eighth habit of finding their people and becoming an island of excellence on a mediocre sea, according to Covey, the main problem is that companies still fall into the old paradigm of thinking in the industrial age, although we already have an in-depth understanding of the knowledge of the working age
What he demands is a new paradigm, which he calls the "systemic paradigm" that integrates physical, mental, spiritual, and spiritual, and he respects the principles of the discipline, vision, passion, and conscience of
. Very concerned about the body (things, systems, structures, procedures, efficiency, bottom line), but Covey
estimates that about 80% of all added value in goods and services now comes from knowledge work and things. Twenty years ago, this figure It's countdown: only 20%
So the key is not behavior - it's a map. The key is the accuracy of the map. Once the paradigm shifts, the behavior will also change. Covey made this clear in
Ask everyone to close their eyes and point to "North." When he asked us to look around, I noticed everyone Pointing in a different direction! Again, most of the people in the organization point in different directions; seeing the recent Harris poll, Covey said, "Only 37% of workers say they are trying to achieve the goals and reasons that their organizations are trying to achieve. Have a clear understanding. "No one knows where the real "northern" is. There is no moral compass, no conscience, no guiding spirit.
Covey believes that part of the solution is to have a goal beyond what he calls WIG or important goals. It helps to achieve greater goals. Only when this goal
clearly communicates to everyone in the organization does quantum improvement begin to take place in the workplace.
Here is my interview with Dr. Covey. Revealed his latest book "The Eighth Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness:" of the Latest Insights:
What sacrament did you make to be your place today?
I am very hard to bring personal and professional Life is dedicated to a people-centered life.I am driven by passion and conscience, spread the understanding of [1945900] principles, and how to use them to achieve greatness.There is no sacrifice in this regard - only to my work, family, community And the church
makes lasting changes, will have passion, unremitting commitment.
What do you think is the most important leader of the genus? Why?
I believe that the most important attribute of a leader is principle, and that the principle of universality and eternality guides
to provide the basis and guidance for every decision and every action. My work is mainly Promote the principles and the power to teach leadership that is centered on principles. Principles are not the invention of my
; they are self-evident and can be found throughout the world. If you see all lasting philosophies, religions and ideas, You will find honesty, trust, honesty, accountability, and other core principles.I just translate these principles into a habitual framework that transforms a person's role in conformity and frequency and allows people to gain the moral authority necessary for lasting leadership.
I must also clarify the definition of leadership, which is sadly and narrowly defined as a title, title, position or position. This is the official authority, not necessarily leadership. Through years of research, teaching and In cooperation with people around the world, I'm sure the leadership is: By communicating their values and potential to people so that they can see for themselves. Together with others, they helped them find their voices, find their own goals, make their own unique contributions, and unleash their potential. This is the real definition of leadership in
. Therefore, leadership extends to our role. Many personal and professional roles - as workers, parents, children, teachers, students, marshes, your name - and the choices we have for
to help other people find their voice.
in your book In the 8th habit, you are talking about finding your own voice and developing your own "unique personal meaning." How do people start doing this?
In order to achieve higher goals, everyone must take the challenge Discover your own voice - their unique personal meaning and meaningful meaning - and help others find their voice.
The voice lies in talent, passion, and the need for conscience. When anyone engages in a job that can exert their talent and stimulate their passion, they will emerge from the great needs of the world. They feel that they are satisfied with their conscience - this is the voice in their lives. The eighth habit is about how to find your voice and help others find them.
What leaders do you really admire and why?
A direct leader who came to mind was Muhammad Yunus, the founder of Grameen Bank. His story is a way to explain how to find a person's voice and help others find their voice. Muhammad saw a need to feel his conscience moved him to try to fill this demand and use his talent and passion to fill this need. In the process, he found his own voice and helped others find his voice
Muhammad wanted to help his poor compatriots in Bangladesh. He met a woman who only made two American pennies a day. He asked about her work and found that the woman had no money to buy the necessary bamboo, so she had to borrow money from the businessman if she sold the finished product to him at the price he dictated. This poor woman is actually held by this businessman.
This woman is not alone. The entire village has 42 hard-working people working in an unbearable environment. Muhammad calculated that it only needs 27 US dollars to help them. He immediately remitted the money to the people and told them that it was a loan that could be repaid.
Muhammad even further demanded that local banks provide additional loans to these villagers and use themselves as guarantors. For the doubts and surprises of bankers, the villagers paid more loans.
Muhammad had expanded this loan plan by creating his own Microfinance institution Grameen Bank, so he can help many villas.
Grameen Bank is now working with more than 46,000 villages to provide micro-credit loans of about $500 million a year to help the poor, 96% of whom are women, produce and sell their goods and build homes. So far, the bank has helped 3.7 million people. The microfinance movement has now spread all over the world.
What advice would you give to young people who will be future leaders of the future?
In my eighth book, I shared the idea that everyone chooses one of the two paths of life, whether you are older or younger, whether you are a man or a woman, rich or poor . The roads we walk through will most likely lead us to mediocrity, while the other roads that go further will bring us to greatness and significance. The first road restricts us and expects us to realize our full potential. This road is usually a quick fix or shortcut lifestyle. When we do not take responsibility for ourselves or treat ourselves as victims, it tends to seduce us. My advice to young people is to avoid mediocrity. They find it difficult to see long-term goals, but if they try to think of themselves as humans with immense potential, and see for themselves the biggest gift of life around them is to choose - they can choose their response to anything in their lives. Go to them and be responsible for their choices, actions and feelings, and choose to create the future.
My son Sean wrote seven habits of high-performance teens to help [young people] become their best self. He speaks very well with young people (much better than I am) and I would recommend his book to anyone who wants to start a good habit when he is young.
