Synopsis "The Speed of Trust: The One Thing That Changes Everything"

Over two million copies sold. Stephen M. R. Covey shows how trust--and the speed at which it is established with clients, employees, and all stakeholders--is the single most critical component of a successful leader and organization. Stephen M. R. Covey, widely known as one of the world's leading authorities on trust, asserts that it is "the most overlooked, misunderstood, underutilized asset to enable performance. Its impact, for good or bad, is dramatic and pervasive. It's something you can't escape." Thankfully, it's is also the thing that can dramatically improve your personal and professional success. Why trust? The simple, often overlooked fact is this: work gets done with and through people. The Speed of Trust offers an unprecedented and eminently practical look at exactly how trust functions in every transaction and every relationship--from the most personal to the broadest, most indirect interaction. It specifically demonstrates how to establish trust intentionally so that you and your organization can forego the time-killing, bureaucratic check-and-balance processes that is so often deployed in lieu of actual trust. This 2018 updated edition includes an insightful afterword by the author which explores ten key reasons why trust is more relevant now than ever before--including how trust is the new currency of our world today.

Stephen R. Covey (Salt Lake City, Utah, October 24, 1932 – Idaho Falls, July 16, 2012) was one of the most influential educators, writers, and speakers in leadership development and personal growth. He earned a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from the University of Utah, an MBA from Harvard, and a PhD in Religious Education from Brigham Young University, where he also taught. Covey was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and held various leadership roles within the organization. His most iconic work, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People (1989), revolutionized business literature by consolidating principles of proactivity, vision, prioritization, and synergy, and has sold over 25 million copies in 52 languages. He also published other influential titles such as First Things First, Principle-Centered Leadership, The 8th Habit, and The Speed of Trust.

Recognized as one of the 25 most influential Americans by Time magazine in 1996, Covey received ten honorary doctorates and the Fatherhood Award from the National Fatherhood Initiative, among other distinctions. He founded the Covey Leadership Center in 1985, which merged with Franklin Quest in 1997 to create FranklinCovey, a global leader in consulting and training leaders and teams. Covey's legacy endures in millions of readers and organizations worldwide that have adopted his principles to achieve effectiveness and transformative leadership.
