“In a 'flatter' world, trust is the 'secret sauce' that significantly enhances learning, relationships, and results. Covey's breakthrough insight that trust is a competency is both revolutionary and immediately practical. CEOs and Chief Learning Officers will embrace The Speed of Trust as an authentic and actionable strategy - a roadmap - for increasing the effectiveness of their organizations and leaders.” -- Elliott Masie, CEO, The Learning CONSORTIUM

Who do you trust?

Ask yourself this penetrating question. Test this from your own experience. How does it feel not to be trusted? To be hovered over and checked up on? To be over-managed and under-led? There is a visceral feeling that fosters resentment in teens and workers when we do not trust them.

"Only 39% of the workforce trusted their senior managers, while only 45% had confidence in their management's abilities.”

"In the U.S., Europe and Japan, fewer than 30% of opinion leaders say that CEO's or CFO's are credible sources of information." -- Watson Wyatt Survey of 12,000 Workers

Who trusts you?

Ask people what they say behind your back, about you, about your company. Again, test it with your own experience: what are your conversations like with people who trust you? You can say the wrong thing, and they still get your meaning. But what are conversations like with someone when trust is low? You can be precise and measured, and they still interpret it the wrong way.

“It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently.” -- Warren Buffett

The highlight of the course is The Trust Quotient. This provocative inquiry asks your co-workers, direct reports and your boss if they trust you. The confidential multiple page report gives you candid insights into whether you are perceived by others as a trusted leader. This is definitely news you can use. Whether it affects your profits as an owner or leader or your promotability as a worker, trust has a measurable impact.

The Individual Trust Quotient is a proprietary instrument unlike any you have used in the past. The Index brings the power and impact of trust from the hidden shadows of leadership into the forefront with skills you can improve.

“The Trust Quotient audit literally changed my life and my career. I gained insights I have never before seen in my long and successful career. More important, I learned skills to dramatically increase my success and results going forward.” -- DeAunte Lancaster

Leading at the SPEED of TRUST is a two-day workshop that teaches participants pragmatic, practical, and actionable skills they can implement immediately regardless of their role in the organization. Using the learnings from your Individual Trust Quotient, this highly interactive workshop engages leaders at all levels in the real work of identifying and closing the trust gaps that exist in many organizations. Instead of continuing to pay an outrageous trust tax™, they can begin to realize the great benefits of a trust dividend™ both personally and organizationally.

“Remember, when you were made a leader, you weren't given a crown, you were given a responsibility to bring out the best in others. For that, your people need to trust you.” -- Jack Welch, former CEO, General Electric

Leading at the Speed of Trust teaches participants the career-critical leadership skills necessary to become more promotable in today's volatile, new global economy. Doing business at the SPEED of TRUST™ dramatically lowers costs and increases profits and influence. This fast-paced, interactive course was developed by New York Times bestselling author Stephen M. R. Covey, informed by his unique hands-on perspective as CEO of a $100+ million-dollar company.

The workshop is based on years of hands-on operational leadership and organizational research. Participants are engaged in activities and examples based in their current work – not on theoretical examples or academic models. The goal of the course is to focus leaders on increasing the speed and magnitude of their individual and organizational results by improving trust and increasing influence with their key stakeholders—including, their direct reports, people to whom they report, and internal and external clients.
