"For fifty years we have heard that we need to move away from
'command and control' leadership. But nobody has named what we
should do instead! That's what Stephen M.R. Covey boldly and
brilliantly does in the words, and the book, Trust & Inspire. Isn't
that what we want? Fifty years from now nobody will speak of
command and control without saying 'trust and inspire'. It's going
to become a part of our language, a part of what management itself
means. As a great leader himself, Stephen will, though this book,
unleash the greatness within you.
--GREG McKEOWN, author of the New York Times bestseller,
Effortless, and the host of the What's Essential
podcast "Trust & Inspire is the future of education."
--CATHY QUIROZ MOORE, Superintendent, Wake County Public School
System "Trust & Inspire is a powerful approach to people and
leadership found precisely at the intersection of performance and
purpose."
--INDRA NOOYI, former Chairman & CED, PepsiCo "Like the
gardener described in this book, the job of leaders is to create an
environment where the seeds of greatness within people are able to
flourish. Trust & Inspire powerfully demonstrates how to cultivate
this kind of growth in any setting."
--MUHAMMAD YUNUS, 2006 Nobel Peace Price winner, founder of
Grameen Bank "[A] spirited appeal for managers to shift from a
'command and control' leadership approach to a 'trust and inspire'
one....Covey makes a strong case that 'trust and inspire'
leadership helps retain more employees, fosters their best work,
and improves the company's finances....Readers will appreciate his
positive spin....a solid reminder that if leaders continue
prioritizing 'getting results' over building relationships, they'll
do neither."
--Publishers Weekly
