With Accelerating Technology and Advanced
AI, Employees Must Have the Human Skills Taught in The 7 Habits to
Fuel Profound Growth at Every Level in Their Organization
FranklinCovey (NYSE: FC), one of the largest and most trusted
leadership companies in the world, announced today the launch of
its reimagined course, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People®,
which has been significantly updated to address today’s workplace
challenges. Its content is based on the #1 bestselling business
book of the same name, which has sold more than 50 million copies
in over 50 languages worldwide.
Organizations today need their people to be more effective
because great people build great organizations. Any organization’s
success hinges on tapping into the collective energy of its people
and directing it towards its most critical strategies. But often,
individuals excel at technical skills but lack foundational human
skills.
“In an era of accelerating technology and advanced AI, human
skills for working effectively with others are more vital than ever
before,” said FranklinCovey CEO Paul Walker. “This new 7 Habits
course equips everyone in an organization with essential abilities,
such as emotional intelligence, proactive problem-solving, and
self-leadership, fueling profound growth at every level.”
Redesigned for today’s evolving workplace, The 7 Habits course
is foundational for every person in every organization—from
individual contributors to senior leaders. It provides a framework
for personal and professional effectiveness, and fosters a culture
of collaboration, productivity, and continuous improvement within
teams and organizations. Learners develop the mindsets to work from
the inside out, establish their character, and create the
foundation to work more effectively—both individually and with
others.
Will Houghteling, FranklinCovey EVP of Product and Platforms,
said, "The updated 7 Habits course creates lasting behavioral
transformation, unlocking potential and maximizing performance.
Employees are empowered to communicate more effectively,
proactively solve problems, and align their efforts with
organizational goals, leading to greater organizational
success."
Many organizations face common challenges like poor
communication, inconsistent motivation, and lack of strategic
alignment. The 7 Habits course addresses these challenges at their
core to transform organizations:
Challenges
Solutions
Individuals have inconsistent motivation
and engagement and are hesitant to take initiative or
responsibility for results.
Improve individual effectiveness and build
character that leads to lasting behavior change.
Team communication is poor, with frequent
friction and frustration.
Establish more collaborative and creative
teams that generate new ideas and achieve breakthrough results
together.
A lack of strategic organization creates
islands between individuals, teams, and departments.
Create an opportunity for team members to
thrive by developing a shared language and winning culture.
Research conducted by FranklinCovey shows that employees
proficient in the 7 Habits are rated by their managers as top
performers and more highly engaged. The data proves the
effectiveness of the course, with skills from the 7 Habits
consistently predicting job success. Key benefits for organizations
whose learners participate in the course include:
- Business Impact: drives innovation, strengthens collaboration,
and eliminates siloes, unlocking intangibles that elevate
performance.
- Skill Development: cultivates essential personal and
interpersonal leadership skills—emotional intelligence,
proactivity, and agility—resulting in transformative behavior
change.
- Employee Engagement: provides an experience that drives
validated and measurable employee engagement and success.
Walker said, “Trusted by millions worldwide, The 7 Habits course
is the personal—and interpersonal-development solution that
continues to be the leadership development standard. For more than
35 years, it has been experienced by people holding every title, in
every industry and occupation, and is the hallmark of effective
leadership, performance optimization, extraordinary results, and
winning cultures. This is The 7 Habits effect.”
The course is built upon the framework of The Maturity
Continuum®. Each habit is based on universal principles and
paradigms of effectiveness that are timeless, trusted, and proven.
Learners move from dependence and independence to interdependence.
The Private Victory® includes Habits 1-3, and emphasizes personal
mastery, defining desired outcomes and focusing efforts to lay the
internal groundwork for success. The Public Victory® includes
Habits 4-6, and fosters collaboration and synergy with others,
building strong relationships that allow learners to accomplish
more together than they could alone. And, Renewal, Habit 7,
emphasizes the need for self-renewal and continuous improvement to
succeed in and sustain the other habits.
Each session of The 7 Habits course will help learners to apply
the 7 Habits.
