Stephen M. R. Covey Knihy

From Stephen R. Covey's eldest son come a revolutionary book that will guide business leaders, public figures and their organizations towards unprecedented productivity and satisfaction. Trust, says Stephen M. R. Covey, is the very basis of the 21st century's global economy, but its power is generally overlooked and misunderstood. Covey shows you how to inspire immediate trust in everyone you encounter - colleagues, constituents, the marketplace - allowing you to forego the time-killing and energy-draining check and balance bureaucracies that are so often relied upon in lieu of actual trust.

"Unleash the hidden power of trust and change lives and impact organization with proven, patented techniques. In a compelling and reader-friendly style, Stephen M.R. Covey and long-time business partner Greg Link share enlightening principles from people and organizations that are achieving unprecedented prosperity from high-trust relationships and--even more inspiring--also attaining elevated levels of energy and joy. With penetrating insights about the world's most successful leaders and organizations, the authors lay out a practical and actionable formula that makes trust a performance multiplier for leaders, teams, organizations, and even countries. They show why trust is fast becoming the most consequential life and leadership skill of our time--a career-critical competency required to navigate and compete in this perilous twenty-first-century interdependent, global economy. Covey and Link teach how to cut through traditional either/or thinking to extend Smart Trust, enabling you to exercise sound judgment in a low-trust world by minimizing risk and maximizing possibilities."--Publisher description.
