Discussion Notes: The Seven Habits of Highly Successful People
by Stephen R. Covey
Prepared by Joseph M. Mellichamp, Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of Management Science, The University of Alabama

If you are like most Christian professors, you have felt a burden for your colleagues and have wanted to reach out to them—especially those closest to you. Perhaps you just haven't been able to think of an appropriate way.

One of the real keys of ministry is to address felt needs. Perhaps the most universally perceived need of professors in academia is time management, effectiveness. What better way to minister to busy colleagues who are all under pressure to produce than to offer to help them become more effective? Dr. Mellichamp's online notes and outline have helped many professors serve their colleauges, opening doors for further ministry.
