In this episode, Mike and Gay interview Stephen M.R. Covey about his new book Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others, as well as his leadership legacy, vision, and current projects.

The world has changed all around us in all the ways we know. And yet our style of leadership hasn't kept pace with the changing world.

We're still too rooted in the old model, what we might call Command or Control. It’s a more advanced and sophisticated version of it, but it is the same in principle.

We haven't shifted the paradigm of how we view people and leadership. 

And until we shift that paradigm, we won't lead in a new way. 

We invite you to join Mike & Gay as they dialogue with Stephen M.R. Covey about his new book Trust and Inspire. 

This book presents a new way to lead, created for a new world that requires it.
