Stephen M. R. Covey Jr.
is co-founder and CEO of CoveyLink Worldwide. A sought-after and compelling keynote
speaker and advisor on trust, leadership, ethics, and high performance, he speaks to
audiences around the world. He is the author of The SPEED of Trust, a
groundbreaking and paradigm-shifting book that challenges our age-old assumption that
trust is merely a soft, social virtue and instead demonstrates that trust is a hard-edged,
economic driver—a learnable and measurable skill that makes organizations more
profitable, people more promotable, and relationships more energizing.
He is the former CEO of Covey Leadership Center,
which, under his stewardship, became the largest leadership development company in the
world. Covey personally led the strategy that propelled his father’s book, Dr.
Stephen R. Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, to one of the two
most influential business books of the 20th Century, according to CEO Magazine. A Harvard
MBA, he joined Covey Leadership Center as a Client Developer and later became President
& CEO.

“Leading
at the SPEED of TRUST” practices significantly lower costs and increase speed,
profits, and influence. In this fast-passed and engaging presentation, Stephen M. R. Covey
Jr. dramatically demonstrates the leadership benefits of TRUST from the informed
perspective of a CEO and teaches how to establish and grow a high-trust, high-performance
organization.
Stephen
M. R. Covey Jr. predicts that:
“The
ability to establish, grow, extend, and restore trust with all
stakeholders–customers, suppliers, investors, and employees–is the critical
leadership competency required in the new, global economy.”
TRUST,
more important than VISION, you ask? Yes! No matter how grand a vision, the high cost of
low trust can stop you from reaching it profitably.
TRUST,
more important than STRATEGY? Yes! While high trust can‘t make a poor strategy
succeed, the high cost of low trust can derail an otherwise great strategy.
TRUST,
more important than SYSTEMS and STRUCTURE? Yes! No degree of re-engineering and quality
control can overcome the sabotage and tax of a low trust culture.
TRUST,
more important than SKILLS? Yes! No matter how skilled a group, the high cost of low trust
can disrupt their potential success. Nothing repels talent like a high control, low trust
workplace.
We
call it the “SPEED of TRUST™.” Leading at the SPEED of TRUST
is both more financially rewarding AND just plain more fun and energizing. (And not just
because of the money!)
