Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Steven R Covey's bestselling The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People was a landmark book in the world of self-help publishing as it introduced readers to a concept of life, both personally and professional, which encourages subtle and steady changes in the way people deal with the world around them. In The Seven Habits of Highly Effective Families, Covey takes those same habits--be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think "win/win", seek first to understand and then to be understood, synergise, sharpen the saw--and transposes them onto possibly one of the most complex and confusing relationships that a human being is ever likely to encounter: the family. When you bear in mind that whereas we have at least some opportunity for choosing our friends, our lovers and, to a certain extent, our work colleagues, we have little or no choice in the matter when it comes to our families, so trying to apply the "Seven Habits", which may have already helped to improve other aspects of your life, to this particular arena is no mean feat. However, with his customary aplomb and insight, Covey forces his readers to look in the mirror and face up to the consequences of their actions in this most delicate of areas, and comes out with a formula that will gradually help to move even the most dysfunctional of families through the stages of simple survival to a sense of stability, on to success and finally, and most importantly, to significance.
Of course, the recognition of problems and desire to change are the most important things, but once those issues have themselves been confronted then it is unlikely that you will find a more thorough self-help programme to set you on your path. --Susan Harrison --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
Review
Stephen Covey's profound bestseller reveals the attitudes and interactions needed to build a harmonious, nurturing family structure which promotes a strong and effective value system able to withstand potential problems or to resolve existing conflicts and unhappiness. He shares examples from his own as well as other families, and writes with clarity, empathy and insight into the pressures modern families face. There should be a copy in every home. (Kirkus UK)
