7 Habits Author, Stephen Covey, Launches New Learning Community and Gives Millions Access to Life Changing Principles : Using Web 2.0 Technology, St

PROVO, Utah (Business Wire EON) July 17, 2008 -- Stephen Covey has announced the official launch of stephencovey.com, a first-of-its-kind social networking and online learning community that gives individuals an opportunity to learn first-hand as he personally teaches them the principles of setting, tracking and achieving personal goals.

By recognizing and embracing the role that social networking communities now have in society, Covey has given individuals the ability to learn and implement his life changing 7 Habits principles. They can now participate in an uplifting and inspiring Web 2.0 setting that is comfortable, where they control the pace and where they can literally interact with other people around the world who are trying to achieve similar goals.

Additionally, stephencovey.com provides a level of anonymity that allows individuals to share openly and honestly without the fear of embarrassment, judgment or the violation of privacy.

"This new online learning community gives individuals a new and modern way to apply the core principles upon which the 7 Habits are based, which have influenced the lives of millions of people," said Stephen Covey. "Now, we are able to take the benefits of a social networking community and open the door for more people to change their lives more than ever before."

Launched as a beta site in February of this year, stephencovey.com has already been experiencing incredible success. In just five months, nearly 25,000 users from over 140 countries have registered with the online learning community. Those users have turned to a worldwide network of support that allows them to talk openly and honestly about a variety of life-changing topics. Some of the dozens of forums on stephencovey.com where learners are implementing the 7 Habits include:

- Getting up early and exercising

- Closing the gap between work and family

- Overcoming procrastination

- Identifying your personal heroes

- Loving a person you dislike or hate

- Recovering from substance abuse

- Improving communication

To add additional value and support for members of the online learning community to help them reach their goals, Stephen Covey has partnered with several prominent sponsors, who will represent various groups on stephencovey.com.

Such organizations include Bayer Healthcare Diabetes Care (The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People with Diabetes group), OC Tanner (The Appreciate Movement group), Inspire Health (The 7 Habits of Healthy People group), Harvard Business School (Lifelong Learning group) and USA WEEKEND Magazine (creators of Make a Difference Day, October 25).

The unique technology behind stephencovey.com is made possible by Wi5Connect, an organization that is revolutionizing the way businesses are able to utilize Web 2.0 tools through social learning to achieve business objectives.

With the launch of stephencovey.com, Wi5Connect has helped Stephen Covey and FranklinCovey to emerge on the leading edge of a growing trend - utilizing the power of Web 2.0 technology to communicate key messages and enhance business objectives.

"The response stephencovey.com received while still a beta site has exceeded all of our expectations," said Laurie Lohner, president of Wi5Connect. "There is enormous opportunity and potential for businesses to utilize social media, online learning and other Web 2.0 tools as a legitimate business solution for their clients and customers."

Registration on stephencovey.com is free and includes full access to the online learning community's four major areas designed to give individuals a common place to come together and achieve greatness, including:

1. Learning through videos and online learning exercises

2. Goal setting, tracking and management

3. Making friends and communicating with individuals around the world
