The Speed of Trust, published by Free Press in 2006, Stephen M.R. Covey introduces readers how to build trust and how to restore trust had you once lost it. The Covey junior, also a Harvard MBA, follows the writing style of his father Stephen R. Covey in CoveyLink consulting book series, using plain English to compose his thesis and the contents are easy to comprehend. I remember that when I first read the book of Stephen R. Covey, The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, that's my freshman year in the university, and I read the Chinese translation edition. I always could find many, many resonances especially in the lonely cold winter nights. Then I was thinking that if someone, somewhere out there, was reading the same book as me, he might be just telling me that his reading skills, capability and competence were improved from the read, just like at this moment I am reaping the benefits from the read of The Speed of Trust, written by his son, Stephen Covey Jr. of Harvard MBA.
Trust, of course the most important priority when we try to perform leadership or conduct business. And speed kills. Both are necessary to make a success story. Stephen M.R. Covey is trying to discuss this topic in an easy understanding style, when he mentions the empathy issue. He confesses that even the corporate CEOs cannot easily pass the scrutiny of trust test. But Stephen Covey Jr. reminds us that integrity and honesty would help you.
The one thing that changes everything. I remember that after my motorbike hit by a military car in front of the McDonald's in 2001, I then bought the Harvard Business School consulting book, Maximum Success, by Dr. James Waldroop and Dr. Timothy Butler. Those success stories sell ideas to my heart. For example, the client Helen's story hit a chord, and later I also found the same story in the book of Dr. Susan Forward, the Emotional Blackmail. What's the one thing? I think that was revealed in the book describing the behaviors of children. It says, according to Sigmund Freud, children with Oedipus complex mixed illusions tend to feel that parents are threaten by its own charisma or personality character. It's wrong.
The new concepts Stephen M.R. Covey brought us are that he is using a business consulting model to explain the essence of trust and speed, the capability and suspicion concepts. That's different because you with that can tell the difference between competence and confidence or discipline. He also mentions the issues of relevant and credible, using the business terminology, the Dividends and Taxes to explain, contrast to the Banking Account metaphor and Time Managing versus Importance Managing Grid concepts of his father Mr. Stephen R. Covey. In the final chapter, Mr. Stephen M.R. Covey introduces how to restore trust, from societal, relationship, looking forward into market and organization, family and self trust. Stephen M.R. Covey uses 5 waves of trust, 4 cores of credibility and 13 behaviors model to make trust-worthy alignment possible to the Speed of Trust readers.
