Principle Centered Leadership
By Stephen R Covey

How do we as individuals and organisations survive and thrive amid tremendous change?  Why are efforts to improve falling so short in real results despite the millions of dollars in time, capital, and human effort behind spent on them?  How do we unleash the creativity, talent, and energy within ourselves and others in the midst of pressure?  Is it realistic to believe that balance among personal, family, and professional life is possible?
Stephen R Covey demonstrates that the answer to these and other dilemmas is Principal-Centered Leadership, a long-term, inside-out approach to developing people and organisations.
