PARADIGM SHIFT

3. PUT FIRST THINGS FIRST

4. THINK WIN-WIN

• The only one I disagree somewhat with

• Win-Win speaks towards Interdependence

• Not to be confused with Independence, or Dependence

• Requires that we see each other for their worth and not how to beat them

• Says that we should seek mutual benefit in all human Interactions

• We both get a piece of the pie

Page 11: THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE Author: Stephen R. Covey Presented By: Ramsey Sellers

5. SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND, THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD

• Communication is the MOST important skill in life

• We usually have 4 responses when we listen• Evaluate: agree or disagree

• Probe: question from own reference

• Advise: counsel based on experience

• Interpret: figure the person out

Page 12: THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE Author: Stephen R. Covey Presented By: Ramsey Sellers

5. SEEK FIRST TO UNDERSTAND, THEN TO BE UNDERSTOOD

• If we are constantly breaking down words, we never understand the full message

• Take the words for what they are

• See the message as the person speaking it sees it

Page 13: THE 7 HABITS OF HIGHLY EFFECTIVE PEOPLE Author: Stephen R. Covey Presented By: Ramsey Sellers

6. SYNERGIZE

• Two heads are better than one

• Goes back to interdependence

• Application of previous habits is key

• If everyone thought the same, new innovations would be impossible

• Value each others differences: mental, emotional, and psychological

AS A RECAP!!

• First comes a paradigm shift

• Then the 7 habits

• All 7 are interdependent, one will not happen without the other

• Its not about mastering them, but working towards them daily
