*It’s been said that, in the United States, the influence of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is second only to the Bible.

*Not only is it listed as core reading for employees in many Fortune 500 companies, but even former US Presidents Clinton and Obama have recommended it.

*Sales now exceed 25 million copies, and it was the first non-fiction book to sell a million copies in audio format.

*Covey provides a masterful synthesis of what he argues are simply ‘natural laws’, timeless and universal principles that are the foundations of effectiveness.

*Understanding these principles and following them with integrity, by way of Covey’s series of seven habits, leads the way to fulfillment and success.
