In the first article in this series of 3 on the topic "Who practices the 7 Habits is Emotionally Intelligent?" I had the opportunity to write about Emotional Intelligence and the five elements of emotional intelligence

Recalling the five important elements to emotional intelligence:

1. Self-awareness

2. Self-regulation

3. Motivation

4. Empathy

5. Social skills

In the second article, I had the opportunity to write about the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Recalling the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People:

1. Be proactive

2. Begin with the end in mind

3. First things first

4 - Think win-win

5 - Seek first to understand, then to be understood

6- Synergize

7- Sharpen the Saw; Growth

Principles contained in the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

In the table below I will present the underlying Principles or the essence of the 7 Habits

Conclusion

Question

A few years ago, the PMBOK Guide recommended that project managers practice the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People 

Why was this recommendation withdrawn and replaced by Emotional Intelligence?

Dear André
Thank you for participating in this reflection

We can start by reading the book: "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"
Surely you will find answers to start practicing

In the 5th and 6th Editions of the PMBOK Guide it was recommended to practice the 7 Habits

Dear Alcides
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

I am convinced that it is.
May we be better Project Managers than practicing the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People

Dear Mahabubur
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your questions

Habit 3 refers, as mentioned in the previous article, to the habit of managing our lives according to our purpose and the time we all have (we only have 24 hours a day)
Using the Importance x Urgency matrix we can focus on the activities of:
Quadrant I. Urgent and important (Do) - important deadlines and crises
Quadrant II. Not urgent but important (Plan) - long-term development

When practicing the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People we have to consider our improvement.
That’s why there is the 7th Habit

Dear Carlos
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

Do you want to talk about the experience of starting to practice the 7 Habits of Highly Effective people?

Luis Branco CEO| Business Insight, Consultores de Gestão, Ldª Carcavelos, Lisboa, Portugal
Dear Tiago
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

Yes, we agree. The Principles are universal
I also consider that it is possible to develop Emotional Intelligence by practicing the 7 Habits

I'm surprised how it appears in the place that appears to comment on this article and I have not responded

I apologize to you for just doing it now

Sure. I am available to talk about it.

Luis -

Good job at connecting the dots between Covey's work and Goleman's!

While the latter is one example of a model which supports the importance of elevated EI, there are others out there as well so this might have been a case of PMI choosing to go with the principles rather than a specific "method".

Luis Branco CEO| Business Insight, Consultores de Gestão, Ldª Carcavelos, Lisboa, Portugal
Dear Kiron
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

Is the principle to use Emotional Intelligence?
And are the 7 Habits the method?

Luis

Great post, and I like the correlation you made between both but as Kiron mentioned, this remains one model only, so maybe in your next model, you can explore more models.

Thank you for sharing this.

Hi Luis,

First of all, thank you. It was a very interesting article.
Trusting others, taking the initiative in themselves and acting seriously for the benefit of each other.
I understand these are necessary elements for both the EQ and the good personality.

Dear Anish
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

Emotional intelligence is a necessary but not sufficient condition to lead

You just gave me an idea:
to create a topic on this subject

Thanks

Dear Luis Branco:

As you just demonstrated in your reflection on the subject, highly effective people who practice Covey's 7 habits at an individual level are emotionally intelligent.

But, how to take Covey´s 7 habits to next level to foster the conditions to develop emotionally intelligent successful teams?

Thank you so much for sharing a such comprehensive articles on the topic.

Best Regards
Paulo Roque
