He promptly answers with four words: "a beautiful family culture." Building this culture is the primary theme of Covey's parenting guide, a manual based on concepts introduced in his blockbuster, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. Covey, a New-Age business guru and leadership authority, has consulted with the world's top corporate and political leaders, but closer to home he is the father of nine children. Here, Covey reinterprets each of his now famous "habits" (Habit 1: Be Proactive, Habit 4: Think Win-Win, Habit 6: Synergize) to apply to parenting and family-life issues. Covey suggests writing a family mission statement, implementing special family times and "one-on-ones," holding regular family meetings, and making the commitment to move from "me" to "we" as techniques to improve family effectiveness. Covey is a brilliant storyteller. By weaving the voices and anecdotes of his wife and children with his own inspirational and informative stories, exercises, and parables, he has created a book with something for all parents interested in enhancing the strength and beauty of their own families. This book has lots of good and simple ideas related to raising a family today but ultimately I found most of the material too corny and unrealistic to be used by most families. I found myself getting annoyed at much of the simplistic ideas and anecdotes. One cannot ignore the impact of society on others but you must embrace it positively - not all impact from modern culture is negative. This book comes with a set of discussion cards and is a wonderful book to read as a family during meals. My family has had deep heart-to-heart talks based on such discussion questions. I would recommend this book for any family seeking ways to reconnect or improve their interpersonal realtionships with each other. The long-awaited new book that offers precious lessons in creating and sustaining a strong family culture in a turbulent world. With the same profound insight, simplicity and practical wisdom that propelled The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People to worldwide acclaim, Stephen R Covey now focuses on the primary concern of society today -- the family. No family is free from challenges from its own members or from the outside world. In his latest book Covey shows how the 7 Habits create a powerful framework of timeless, universal and self-evident principles that enable family members to communicate effectively about their problems and resolve them. True happiness does not come from possessions or fame: it comes from the quality of your relationships with the people you love and respect. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Families will help you find answers to such common family difficulties as: How can you have quality time for the family when both parents (or the only parent) are working simply to keep food on the table? How can you build harmony in the family when everyone is criticising and putting one another down? How can you influence a family member who just won't listen to you at all? How can you strengthen your family to withstand destructive influences in society? How can you discipline without punishing? How can you rebuild a broken relationship when the feeling is no longer there? How do you create and maintain order and a spirit of cooperation in the family yet give family members the freedom and autonomy they need to grow and find fulfilment? How do you create a spirit of fun, adventure and excitement in the family? sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
