Every person has a gift, or an ability that sets them apart from the crowd. Good managers recognize this and try to use it to their advantage. Great managers try to surround themselves with talent…they recognize that with that much talent in their corner, they can’t fail. Bad managers feel threatened and try to discredit the very people that can further their career.

The world has lost a great motivational guru Stephen Covey. I’m sure you’ve read the CNN report that Stephen Covey passed away Monday July 16 at the age of 79.
Steven’s books and presentations paved the way for those of us in the business of improving other people’s lives.I think his books influenced almost everyone in business today.He wrote books like
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People
The 8th Habit: From Effectiveness to Greatness
First Things First
Principle-Centered Leadership
Stephen Covey’s books and principles were a huge part of my personal and professional training. The world at large, not just the business world, are better for his contributions. Thanks you Stephen Covey for the shared wisdom and charity over the years.
