The Leader in Me
Description
The Leader in Me by Stephen R. Covey. 'How Schools and Parents around the World are inspiring Greatness, One Child at a Time. Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach them how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Me is that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. In 19999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People to a pilot group of students. In a short time the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 97. The & Habits have already changed the lives of millions of people, but this book shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits - be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw - are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well. The book has some staining down the page edges but overall remains tight and bright.
