The 7 Leadership Principles of World's Top Leaders

For most people, one of their biggest dreams is to achieve success and happiness with their character and competence. For most leaders, their biggest dream is also to build a successful organization based on character and competence. For any organization, the more employees with good character and competence they can have, the more likely they are to achieve desired goals and sustainable growth. People who live highly effective lives know that habitually living by a few key principles of effectiveness allows them to get the results they want in their work and personal lives over and over again.

The 7 Habits helps people think about the questions: “Why are people ineffective?”, “What makes people highly effective?” and “How to achieve sustainable effectiveness?” The answers to these questions give each individual and leader insights into sustainable success, a new vitality, and a new developmental phase for oneself and for the organization.

Our belief is that “if strategy is seed, culture is soil

Developed from universal values and timeless principles of effectiveness, The 7 Habits enables organizations to create a foundational culture, an indispensable condition to develop a unique organizational culture, or a winning strategy. Our belief is that “if strategy is seed, culture is soil. If ‘the soil’ is toxic, ‘the seed’ won’t grow”. There must be an effective culture for strategies to be executed successfully. There must be a strong foundational culture for the unique corporate culture to flourish just as one needs to be a kind person before becoming a unique individual.

Western Digital Story with “7 Habits”

In 2011, Thailand experienced a terrific flood affecting millions of life and thousands of businesses in the country.

Under this circumstance, Western Digital, a high technology group with 38.000 employees, was also heavily damaged. The company was forecast to spend 1 billion USD and at least 7 months to recover. Some expected that was the end of Western Digital.

Interestingly, what happened was contrary to all specialists’ prediction. In fact, Western Digital resumed operations in just 46 days, spending only 200 million USD – far below the estimated cost. Within one year, they claimed the Number 1 position in their industry, achieving a 30% gross margins. The question is: What enabled Western Digital to spectacularly overcome the crisis, as well as ‘rebirth’ and continue to make credible success?

The leaders and people of this group proudly shared about the cultural advantage which they have thanks to successfully installing “the 7 Habits operating system” of FranklinCovey in the whole organization. If strategy was seed, then culture would be soil. If ‘the soil’ was not good, then disregarding how many efforts put in, ‘the seed’ would not germinate and grow. - FranklinCovey “We enable greatness in people and organizations everywhere”
