Product Description:
From Stephen R. Covey's eldest son comes a revolutionary new path towards productivity and satisfaction. Trust, says Stephen M.R. Covey, is the very basis of the new global economy, and he shows how trust—and the speed at which it is established with clients, employees and constituents—is the essential ingredient for any high–performance, successful organization.
For business leaders and public figures in any arena, The Speed of Trust offers an unprecedented and eminently practical look at exactly how trust functions in our every transaction and relationship—from the most personal to the broadest, most indirect interaction—and how to establish trust immediately so that you and your organization can forego the time–killing, bureaucratic check–and–balance processes so often deployed in lieu of actual trust.

Rating:  - Thank you, book!
It's a very healthy, specific, adequate and thorough work.
My psychological training has been more towards analysis, geshtalt and other therapeutic branches, but books like this one make me think more into cognitive-behavioral way, and for good. They make a lot of sence for sane individuals who are eager to work in order to improve their quality of life.
And it IS easy to follow.
Rating: - A Hard Look at Ourselves...Needed !!!!!
It's been a thought-provoking and interesting book so far. It asks a lot of questions of me that dig pretty deep into my thoughts and feelings - and motivations.
Am I trustworthy? Do I have true, real honesty? Can I be relied upon? Do I surround myself with others who are trustworthy? Am I working on my ethics and honesty to be a better and happier person?
Lots of things about ourselves totally hinge on trust. I had never looked at it from these points of view before. ... Read More

Rating: - Buy one for each of your staff members!
Great book that can help people get to the bottom of things. If we can't trust each other we both lose! Applies to your company's relationships to your customers and to your vendors as well! Great read and even better information!
Rating:  - Worth reading
Nutshell review - A good insight and explanation of how trust amongst colleagues, friends, and family can have positive impact on performance. Suffers from the usual page-filling case-studies to make the requisite number of pages for a book.
