Description
This warm, practical audio summary explores trust as a real, usable asset—not something abstract or accidental. Stephen R. Covey frames trust as the quiet force that can speed up progress, strengthen relationships, and restore confidence after disappointments.
Across five “waves” of trust, the narration gently guides listeners from building self-trust and credibility, to growing dependable relationships, to creating healthier organizations, to shaping market reputation, and finally to contributing to societal well-being. Along the way, it emphasizes simple behaviors—like honesty, respect, transparency, and making things right—that help trust grow steadily over time.
