The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People is a book that teaches exactly what it says - how to be effective. Some may consider this a "self-help" book, but if you notice its following or how many companies put this on their required reading list, its more than just that. It teaches on a personal, professional, and human level to be more effective. The book has a structured diagram and explains each of them in chapters, with each of the chapters being perquisites to the other chapters.
What are some of the advantages to the book? One of the biggest advantages is it teaches about yourself and things that might be holding you back - and then gives solutions and reasons for them as well. Each chapter has multiple examples of a solution, and why it worked.
On a personal level, it helps you either achieve what you want, or help you understand your situation. On a professional level, it helps you work well with other people regardless of your position, from subordinate to supervisor.
I'm on my second read through right now, and so far its just as good a second time.
