Applying the Seven Habits During a Pandemic

Larry Center, Assistant Dean for CLE at Georgetown Law for 32 years and a former ACLEA president, has been a licensed Franklin Covey facilitator for 25 years. He has taught “The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People” as a full-day ACLEA seminar and at ACLEA annual meetings. Now Larry returns to show us how to apply these critical habits as we cope with this unprecedented pandemic. Larry will  review the essential elements of each habit and illustrate how we can all utilize them to address the uncertainty, stress and work challenges we are all facing during this strange time in our lives.
