From the multimillion-copy bestselling author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Dr. Stephen R. Covey illustrates how his principles of leadership can be applied to children of all ages.
In today's world, we are inundated with information about who to be, what to do, and how to live. But what if there was a way to learn not just what to think about, but how to think? A program that taught young people how to manage priorities, focus on goals, and be a positive influence in their schools?

The Leader in Me is that program. In this bestseller, Stephen R. Covey took the 7 Habits that have already changed the lives of millions of readers and showed that even young children can use them as they develop. These habits are being adapted by schools around the country in leadership programs, most famously at the A.B Combs Elementary school in Raleigh. Not only do the programs work, but they work better than anyone could have imagined. This book is full of examples of how the students blossom under the program—from the classroom that came together to support one of their struggling peers to the fourth grader who overcame his fear of public speaking and took his class to see him compete in a national story telling competition.

Perfect for individuals and corporations alike, The Leader in Me shows how easy it is to incorporate these skills into daily life so kids of all ages can be more effective, goal-oriented, and successful.

      In Stephen Covey's latest audio, the seven habits of highly effective people sound as strong and relevant as ever. Along with an insightful review of each habit, the personal growth icon tells how an elementary school principal and her staff taught these transformative principles to school children and their parents. The goal was to shift them from a fact-based, testing-focused curriculum to one that would foster creativity and character traits such as honesty, integrity, teamwork, initiative, and collaboration. Though Covey's voice sounds less energetic than it once did, the depth of his wisdom and commitment to developing people can be heard in every word and phrase. A worthy reminder of precious truths and an inspiring story of how innovative teachers can make a difference. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
