Stephen Covey

author of ~10 books, including:

Covey argues against what he calls "The Personality Ethic", something he sees as prevalent in many modern Self Help books. He instead promotes what he labels "The Character Ethic": aligning one’s Value-s with so-called "universal and timeless" principles. Covey adamantly refuses to conflate principles and values; he sees principles as external Natural Law-s, while values remain internal and subjective. Covey proclaims that values govern people's behavior, but principles ultimately determine the consequences. Covey presents his teachings in a series of Habit-s, manifesting as a progression from dependence via independence to interdependence. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Covey
