The Wisdom and Teachings of Stephen R. Covey

By: Stephen R. Covey, Sean Covey - introduction

Narrated by: Jesse Boggs

This commemorative collection captures the essence of Dr. Stephen R. Covey’s most profound teachings on business, success, management, family, and love.

Stephen R. Covey passed away in July 2012, leaving behind an unmatched legacy with his teachings about leadership, time management, effectiveness, success, and even love and family. A multimillion-copy bestselling author of self-help and business classics, Dr. Covey strove to help readers recognize the key elements that would lead them to personal and professional effectiveness. His seminal work, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, transformed the way people act on their problems with a compelling, logical, and well-defined process. Indeed, many of the habits have been assimilated into everyday thinking and everyday conversation. For example, the expressions “win/win” and “first things first,” to name a few, have been incorporated into almost every business culture around the world.

The Wisdom and Teachings of Stephen R. Covey is a compilation of Dr. Covey’s most insightful, inspiring teachings and sayings. His profound influence spread beyond businesses and individuals and was even integrated into governments, school systems, and many other institutions with great success. This book covers his most impactful topics: time management, success, leadership—including principle-centered leadership—all of the 7 Habits, love, and family. This powerful collection is a lasting tribute to the inspirational luminary that so many will miss.

Great Book!

Good book! I'll be listening to it again for sure. Very helpful when it comes to self work, mindset, etc.

Fantastic!

It was very informational. Great quotes. I Loved his wisdom on many issues. Thanks for sharing your experiences. ☺

The Best from the Best!

Would you consider the audio edition of The Wisdom and Teachings of Stephen R. Covey to be better than the print version?

I bet the written version in great but nothing is better then hearing the voice of the master himself. Stephen Covey is a man with such a voice that shows his loving spirit. He can get from point a to point b and yet make you feel like you are appreciated and part of his inner circle.

Any additional comments?

Listen to this great book, then listen to it again with a pen and paper. Daily look at these stories and phrases of wisdom.

A Great Book!

Wasn't sure what to expect, as I had read Covey in the past and thought that it might be a little dry for an audio book. It was the exact opposite. A well put together summary and quotes of his best work and resonates with his "Eighth Habit" teachings.

Great summary or introduction to Covey's work

What did you love best about The Wisdom and Teachings of Stephen R. Covey?

This is a good summary of Stephen's work, for those who are familiar with his work, i.e. a cliff notes. If you have not been exposed to his works, its a great introduction, a way to encourage you become more familiar.

What aspect of Jesse Boggs’s performance would you have changed?

I would have preferred Stephen Covey, from previous audio recordings. But since that was not possible, Jesse does a good job.
