Stephen M. R. Covey has been one of my most favorite authors to interview. I’ve had that opportunity now three times! So when he suggested I talk to his sister about the book she was finishing up, a book co-written with their late father, I didn’t hesitate to say “yes.”
That new book, out today, is called Live Life in Crescendo: Your Most Important Work is Always Ahead of You.
This is the final book from the late, legendary leadership expert Stephen R. Covey of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People fame, offering inspiration and optimism about living your best life.
He and Cynthia began working on it over ten years ago and it’s finally here!
Near the end of his life, Stephen felt there was a final component to his work:
- How to live your best life no matter your age?
- How to best respond to life-challenging experiences and setbacks?
- How do you approach the challenges and opportunities of middle to later life, like staying on top of your career, leading and inspiring others, expanding your role in your community , and what follows next?
Live Life in Crescendo is his and Cynthia’s answer to these questions, outlining his vision for every age and stage of life.
