Naples: “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People!” 

Stephen R. Covey’s book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People®, continues to be a best seller for the simple reason that it ignores trends and pop psychology and focuses on timeless principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity. Join us on Monday, February 3rd and meet our panelists who demonstrate or have taught these habits and made a difference not only in their lives but in the lives of those around them.
