Stephen M. R. Covey made the counterintuitive argument that trust is not a soft social virtue — it is a hard economic driver, as measurable and as actionable as any other leadership competency. The argument turned out to be exactly right, and the book in which he made it, The Speed of Trust, became a New York Times and number-one Wall Street Journal bestseller translated into 22 languages with more than two million copies sold. As former President and CEO of the Covey Leadership Center — where he grew shareholder value by 67 times — and co-founder of FranklinCovey’s Global Speed of Trust Practice, Covey speaks on trust, leadership, ethics, and performance with the authority of someone who has both studied and built organizations at the highest level.
Trust and Inspire
Covey’s most recent bestseller, Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others, was named the number-one Leadership Book of 2022. It argues that the command-and-control model of leadership is not merely outdated but actively harmful — and provides a practical alternative built on the belief that people are creative, collaborative, and full of potential.
