Summary
Wall Street
Journal
Bestseller
From the bestselling author of The Speed of Trust， a revolutionary new way to lead， deemed “the defining leadership book in the 21st century” （Admiral William McRaven， author of Make Your Bed） that “every parent， teacher， and leader needs” （Esther Wojcicki， author of How to Raise Successful People）。
We have a leadership crisis today， where even though our world has changed drastically， our leadership style has not。 Most organizations， teams， schools， and families today still operate from a model of “command and control，” focusing on hierarchies and compliance from people。 But because of the changing nature of the world， the workforce， work itself， and the choices we have for where and how to work and live， this way of leading is drastically outdated。
Stephen M。R。 Covey has made it his life’s work to understand trust in leadership and organizations。 In his newest and most transformative book， Trust and Inspire， he offers a simple yet bold solution: to shift from this “command and control” model to a leadership style of “trust and inspire。” People don’t want to be managed; they want to be led。 Trust and Inspire is a new way of leading that starts with the belief that people are creative， collaborative， and full of potential。 People with this kind of leader are inspired to become the best version of themselves and to produce their best work。 Trust and Inspire is the solution to the future of work: where a dispersed workforce will be the norm， necessitating trust and collaboration across time zones， cultures， personalities， generations， and technology。
Trust and Inspire calls for a radical shift in the way we lead in the 21st century， and Covey shows us how。

This was a good book。 It probably could have been condensed into half the number of pages， but it read easily and was designed to help readers remember the important point。 Sadly those who most need to read this book haven't discovered it yet。。。 This was a good book。 It probably could have been condensed into half the number of pages， but it read easily and was designed to help readers remember the important point。 Sadly those who most need to read this book haven't discovered it yet。。。 。。。more

I was a little tardy in giving this book five stars because it was so filled with great advice that I had to read parts of it twice。 I was once the corporate leadership reporter at USA Today， so I’ve read my share of leadership books。 I can think of none that I would more highly recommend。This book is even more crucial in today’s world of managing remote and hybrid workers。 That requires trust like never before。 Covey’s brand of Trust & Inspire leadership isn’t “kumbaya。” It isn’t weak， soft， co I was a little tardy in giving this book five stars because it was so filled with great advice that I had to read parts of it twice。 I was once the corporate leadership reporter at USA Today， so I’ve read my share of leadership books。 I can think of none that I would more highly recommend。This book is even more crucial in today’s world of managing remote and hybrid workers。 That requires trust like never before。 Covey’s brand of Trust & Inspire leadership isn’t “kumbaya。” It isn’t weak， soft， cowardly， wishy-washy and indecisive。 There are employees who aren’t trustworthy and they must be dealt with。 But most are trustworthy， even those that have a ways to go to be competent。 Covey points out that you don’t have to be overly charismatic to be a Trust & Inspire leader。 It is a learnable skill。 It requires both courage and humility， two counter forces that lead to great leadership。 。。。more

This book was， no IS， so inspiring！ I saw so many applications in my own life and I can't stop recommending it to everyone I talk to from educators to parents to business owners and leaders of congregations。 It is exactly what the world needs right now。 If we all lived to trust and inspire， we could significantly improve the whole planet。 This book was， no IS， so inspiring！ I saw so many applications in my own life and I can't stop recommending it to everyone I talk to from educators to parents to business owners and leaders of congregations。 It is exactly what the world needs right now。 If we all lived to trust and inspire， we could significantly improve the whole planet。 。。。more

Steven M。R。 Covey text "Trust & Inspire" could well be use as a management text to teach the difference between Command & Control versus "Trust & Inspire" management styles。 Covey presents the contrast between the management/human behavior of each and present the argument how Trust and Inspire is the more valuable tool to implement。 However， the concern surrounds the I can't， what if's， we've never done that here， etc However， Covey mentions that many of the excuses present have been dispelled a Steven M。R。 Covey text "Trust & Inspire" could well be use as a management text to teach the difference between Command & Control versus "Trust & Inspire" management styles。 Covey presents the contrast between the management/human behavior of each and present the argument how Trust and Inspire is the more valuable tool to implement。 However， the concern surrounds the I can't， what if's， we've never done that here， etc However， Covey mentions that many of the excuses present have been dispelled as a result of the recent pandemic where many businesses in essence were required to adopt this way of thinking。 Result showed production went up and people generally felt better about careers。 People often don't leave jobs because they dislike the work but often it's a personnel issue or friction between parties。 Interactions such as subordinates to boss。 The issue today is old line bosses have issues with new thinking。 This text has applications in businesses， schools， teams and life in general。 。。。more

Stephen M。R。 Covey is an expert in Trust。 With this book， he has taken his expertise in this domain and translated it to how leaders need to be in the New World of Work。 You cannot manage people as you manage things。 I love how he talks about inspiring people by believing in their potential and how trust is both something that is earned and given。 He gives great tips that you can put into action today - whether you are a manager， an individual contributor who leads， a professor， in the private o Stephen M。R。 Covey is an expert in Trust。 With this book， he has taken his expertise in this domain and translated it to how leaders need to be in the New World of Work。 You cannot manage people as you manage things。 I love how he talks about inspiring people by believing in their potential and how trust is both something that is earned and given。 He gives great tips that you can put into action today - whether you are a manager， an individual contributor who leads， a professor， in the private or public sector。 Trust and Inspire is a must read。 （I only wish that my managers had read this years ago。） 。。。more

As Stevo’s Novel Ideas， I am a long-time book reviewer， member of the media， an Influencer， and a content provider。 I received this book as a free review copy from either the publisher， a publicist， or the author， and have not been compensated for reviewing or recommending it。This book was Stevo's Business Book of the Week for the week of 4/10， as selected by Stevo's Book Reviews on the Internet and Stevo's Novel Ideas。 "Trust and Inspire" is a new way of leading that starts with the belief that As Stevo’s Novel Ideas， I am a long-time book reviewer， member of the media， an Influencer， and a content provider。 I received this book as a free review copy from either the publisher， a publicist， or the author， and have not been compensated for reviewing or recommending it。This book was Stevo's Business Book of the Week for the week of 4/10， as selected by Stevo's Book Reviews on the Internet and Stevo's Novel Ideas。 "Trust and Inspire" is a new way of leading that starts with the belief that people are creative， collaborative， and full of potential。 People with this kind of leader are inspired to become the best version of themselves and to produce their best work。In this inspired model of future work， Stephen M。R。 Covey does away with outdated processes that convey an implicit lack of trust （such as "you must trust me because I'm your boss"）， in favor of those which foster mutual trust and interdependence （such as encouraging commitment rather than demanding compliance）。 Covey's third stewardship （connecting to why） hit me the hardest， as it's one of the most important questions I constantly ask: why am I doing this？ My job is much easier when I have an answer。Find more Business Books of the Week on my Goodreads Listopia page at https://www。goodreads。com/list/show/9。。。， and find many more reviewed and recommended books and products by searching for me on Google。 。。。more

Given my love of the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen R。 Covey， which is a staple of leadership and life best practices， I had high expectations when I started reading this book by his son， Stephen M。R。 Covey: “Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others。” This book comes at the perfect time。 Our world is facing unprecedented changes， and we can no longer rely on the management and leadership practices of the past， practices that still guide many organi Given my love of the “7 Habits of Highly Effective People” by Stephen R。 Covey， which is a staple of leadership and life best practices， I had high expectations when I started reading this book by his son， Stephen M。R。 Covey: “Trust and Inspire: How Truly Great Leaders Unleash Greatness in Others。” This book comes at the perfect time。 Our world is facing unprecedented changes， and we can no longer rely on the management and leadership practices of the past， practices that still guide many organizations today。 Covey outlines the beliefs of a trust and inspire leader， going into great detail about each。 He states that first and foremost a trust and inspire leader possesses a great a belief in people， and that every single person has the potential for greatness。 A trust and inspire leader believes that people are whole， and sees them for their whole selves。 A trust and inspire leader believes there is enough for everyone and focuses on creating environments of collaboration and support。 A trust and inspire leader believes in serving those around them， and last， a trust and inspire leader believes influence is created first inside。 That behaviors must be modeled。 Not only did this book give me practical reflections and strategies for how I approach working with my team at work to better enhance my own leadership style。 But it also made me think about being a trust and inspire leader in all of my relationships and in my parenting style。 As a new mom， when I think about how I want to raise my daughter， it gave me a lot to reflect on。 Yes， we might need to manage schedules and bedtime， but there are also chances to lead。 To model。 To provide chances for my child to bloom。 To let her be herself。 To give her the room to live out her greatness。 I am inspired reading this book， and know that I will return to the many passages I highlighted and bolded- as a reminder of the kind of leader I want to be， not only in my work， but in my life。 。。。more

I received a copy of Trust & Inspire for review。 Stephen Covey deftly leads readers through differences in not only what current leaders need to be doing to adapt to the changing landscape of the world， but also what what the current demands are necessitating this change。 Trust & Inspire challenges long held beliefs about leadership， motivation， systems， and policies in a way that the reader self-reflects and looks for what they can do to be a Trust & Inspire leader versus Command & Control。 #Ne I received a copy of Trust & Inspire for review。 Stephen Covey deftly leads readers through differences in not only what current leaders need to be doing to adapt to the changing landscape of the world， but also what what the current demands are necessitating this change。 Trust & Inspire challenges long held beliefs about leadership， motivation， systems， and policies in a way that the reader self-reflects and looks for what they can do to be a Trust & Inspire leader versus Command & Control。 #NetGalley #leadership 。。。more
