Editor's Notes
- Principle-Centered Leadership utilize four central principles (security, guidance, wisdom, power) as the core in our personal and professional lives. Covey believes that centering our lives on these principles is “the key to developing rich internal power in our lives.
- Covey emphasizes that principle-centered leadership is practiced from the inside-out. Personal and organizational transformation must come from within. We cannot control what others do, but we can certainly control our own decisions and behaviors. In order to achieve personal and organizational effectiveness, one must also be committed and able to think with a long-term perspective. Organizational means the need to organize people, Managerial is the responsibility to get a job done with others, Interpersonal is the relationships and interactions with others and Personal is the relationship with oneself or building trustworthiness.
- Covey encourages principle-centered leaders to build greater, more trusting and communicative relationships with others in the workplace and in the home
- There are eight characteristics of Principle-Centered Leaders that Covey identifies in his book. Leaders are continually learning, service-oriented, they are radiate positive energy, believe in other people, lead balanced lives, see life as an adventure, synergistic and exercise for self-renewal.
- The first and most fundamental habit of an effective person is to be proactive. More than just taking the initiative, being proactive means taking responsibility for your life. Proactive individuals focus their efforts on the things they can change, whereas reactive people focus their efforts on the areas of their lives in which they have no control.
- Covey states that the most effective way to begin with the end in mind is to create a personal mission statement. It should focus on the following: What you want to be (character) What you want to do (contributions and achievements) The values upon which both of these things are based
- It focuses on the practice of effective self-management through independent will. having an independent will means you are capable of making decisions and acting on them. How frequently you use your independent will is dependent on your integrity. Your integrity is synonymous with how much you value yourself and how well you keep your commitments.
- Covey argues that win/win isn’t a technique, it’s a philosophy of human interaction. It’s a frame of mind that seeks out a mutual benefit for all concerned. This means that all agreements or solutions are mutually beneficial, and all parties feel satisfied with the outcome. To embody this mindset, life must be seen as a cooperative, not a competition. Therefore, to adopt a win/win mindset, you must cultivate the habit of interpersonal leadership.
- you want to improve your interpersonal relations, Covey argues that you must endeavor to understand a situation before attempting to make yourself understood. The ability to communicate clearly is essential for your overall effectiveness, as it’s the most important skill you can train.
- When synergy is operating at its fullest, it incorporates the desire to reach win/win agreements with empathic communication.
- To “sharpen the saw” means to express and exercise all four of these motivations regularly and consistently. Physical, emotional, spiritual and mental. This is the most important investment you can make in your life, as you are the instrument of your performance. It’s essential to tend to each area with balance. The positive effect of sharpening your saw in one dimension is that it has a knock-on positive effect in another, due to them being interrelated. For instance, by focusing on your physical health, you inadvertently improve your mental health, too. This, in turn, creates an upward spiral of growth and change that helps you to become increasingly self-aware. Moving up the spiral means you must learn, commit, and do increasingly more as you move upwards and progressively become a more efficient individual.
