The Penetration of Educational Leadership Texts by Revelation and Prophecy: The Case of Stephen R. Covey.
English, Fenwick W.
Journal of School Leadership, v12 n1 p4-22 Jan 2002
Argues that the uncritical citation of Stephen R. Covey's book, "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People," in educational administration texts undermines the social-scientific foundation of university-based administrator preparation. Asserts that the Covey's book is based on Mormon metaphysics, not social science. (Contains 41 references.) (PKP)
