review 1: Covey's sequel to The Speed of Trust rehashes the concepts from the first book and pads a lot of pages with fluff. His core concepts are: Choose to believe in trust, Start with self, Declare your intent, Do what you say, and Lead out in extending trust. All of these were covered in Speed of Trust. The book has a good message and I'm not upset that I read it (it's always good to revisit solid concepts to remind yourself to do them), but it could have been 150 pages shorter and gotten the same message across.
review 2: This follow-up to Stephen Covey's "The Speed of Trust" drills down into his idea of "Smart Trust", his alternative to distrust or blind faith.He gives example after example of how Smart Trust increases prosperity, energy and joy in your personal li
... morefe and in your business. He points out that you don't need to get others to change, become trustworthy yourself and you will be a change agent. The book outlines five principles for building Smart Trust.Whether you're in business or not, read and apply the lessons in this book to build trust in your life. less

Anecdotal. Some books quoted are great, but the book overall is not very actionable.
