"Detesto sistemas de gerenciamento do tempo, mas este livro é diferente. Com a abordagem de Stephen Covey para tornar a vida cheia de significado e bem-sucedida em seu propósito, você vai trabalhar para viver em vez de viver para trabalhar." – Ron Zemke, coautor de Atendimento nota 10 Primeiro o mais importante vai ajudar você a entender por que as coisas primordiais na sua vida não estão recebendo a devida atenção. Em vez de oferecer um novo relógio, este livro fornece uma bússola – porque a direção que você está tomando é mais determinante que a velocidade com que está caminhando. Longe de ser um livro sobre como fazer mais em menos tempo, este clássico sobre gerenciamento do tempo organiza sua vida levando em conta seus valores e seus princípios. O sistema proposto por Stephen R. Covey, A. Roger Merrill e Rebecca R. Merrill não ensina a fazer malabarismos, mas a priorizar as questões mais significativas para você, como seus relacionamentos, sua família e seu bem-estar. Com centenas de casos de sucesso comprovado, os autores mostram que é possível encontrar o equilíbrio em meio às suas responsabilidades e sugerem começar analisando suas tarefas e dividindo-as em quatro quadrantes: 1) Importante e urgente; 2) Importante, não urgente; 3) Urgente, mas não importante; e 4) Não urgente, não importante. Muita gente gasta tempo demais com as questões urgentes (1 e 3), negligenciando o quadrante 2, que é a base para estabelecer suas prioridades. Ao mudar o foco do urgente para o importante, você conseguirá se organizar melhor e dará um enorme salto. Reunindo exemplos e exercícios práticos, os autores explicam ainda como identificar sua missão e criar uma visão de futuro cheia de significado e propósito, definir e alcançar metas baseadas em princípios que geram qualidade de vida, tomar decisões com sabedoria e tornar suas semanas bem mais produtivas.

A leader's job is to unleash the unlimited store of potential in people. "The vast majority of the workforce in any organization possesses far more talent, intelligence, capability, and creativity than their present jobs require or even allow.” - Dr. Stephen R. Covey That’s what Talent Unleashed is about—unleashing that unlimited store of potential in people. That’s a leader’s job. And how does a leader do that job? Through 3 Leadership Conversations—not just individual events, but ongoing discussions designed to help people give the best they can. In these conversations, leaders trade fear for trust, confusion for clarity, and micromanaging for empowerment. The three vital leadership conversations are: • The Performance Conversation • The Voice Conversation • The Clearing the Path Conversation Performance Conversations define roles and set clear goals. Leaders hold people accountable for these roles and goals, thus transforming team members from “managed hirelings” to “trusted partners and teammates.” Voice Conversations affirm the worth and potential of each person on a team. Leaders help individuals discover their unique gifts, talents, and abilities and align these gifts, talents, and abilities to the great mission of the organization. It is the process that ignites the inner fire. Clear the Path Conversations turn supervisors into leaders who become sources of help and empower people to succeed in their jobs. Leaders help clear away the obstacles from the success pathway.
