Leadership
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
Covey’s approach starts with character rather than technique, which is why the book has outlasted decades of productivity fads. The habits build in order: master yourself first, then how you work with others, then keep renewing both.
Ideas like “begin with the end in mind” and “seek first to understand” have become common phrases precisely because they work.
A foundational read; if you only ever pick up one book on personal effectiveness, this is the one.
