Covey, the international bestselling author and ethical business leader whose name is synonymous with leadership and trust. Covey reveals the practical and experiential wisdom behind his newest book, Trust and Inspire. You'll learn the devastating consequences when there is a lack of trust in any organization, large or small. You'll also learn how anyone—you—can help transform an organization, a situation, a team, even a family, into a vibrant, effective, meaningful and peaceful environment and ultimately how to unleash the greatness of others. LIFE-CHANGING lessons from a master mentor.

Stephen M. R. Covey is the New York Times and #1 Wall Street Journal bestselling author of The SPEED of Trust—The One Thing That Changes Everything. He is the former CEO of Covey Leadership Center, which, under his stewardship, became the largest leadership development company in the world. Stephen personally led the strategy that propelled his father’s book, Dr. Stephen R. Covey’s The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, to become one of the two most influential business books of the 20th Century, according to CEO Magazine.

As President and CEO of Covey Leadership Center, Stephen nearly doubled revenues while increasing profits by 12 times. During that period, the company expanded throughout the world into over 40 countries, greatly increasing the value of the brand and enterprise. The company was valued at $2.4 million when Stephen was named CEO, and, within three years, he had grown shareholder value to $160 million in a merger he orchestrated with Franklin Quest to form FranklinCovey.

Stephen co-founded CoveyLink, a consulting practice, which focuses on enabling leaders and organizations to increase and leverage trust to achieve superior performance. After many years of exceptional results and mentoring, Covey recently merged CoveyLink with FranklinCovey, forming the Global Speed of Trust Practice, where Stephen serves as Global Practice Leader.
