The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Parts 1-3OverviewThe book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Steven Covey offers insights into how people can become more effective and engaged with whatmatters most in their personal and professional lives. In the workplace it is becoming increasingly important to self-evaluate in meaningful and productive ways. When we productively self-evaluate,we express genuine concern for our role in the workplace, but also for the mission and purpose of the workplace in which we are actively engaged. Reflective writing is an important skill as a college student and a necessary skill in the workplace. Reflective writing is not merely describing an event, but instead reflective writing reveals the learning that took place from an event. The learning includes hindsight from the past, and an ability to express how the learning is relevant to both the present and the future. Reflective writing focuses more on the “how?” and the “why?” ofan event to reveal the learning and how that learning will change the future outcome of other events. Through a series of reflective assignments while you read the book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, you will explore concepts that for more than 25 years have engaged and influenced readers just like you! The assignment has been split into six sub-assignments. The six sub assignments are submitted throughout the semester and graded at the time of submission.Please refer to syllabus for due dates. Refer to the rubric for criteria for completing all sub-assignment.
