This book is a very valuable tool. Focusing on the state of trust in any relationship makes challenges easier to examine and understand more completely and objectively. Covey asserts that when trust is strong; activities, partnerships, and projects grow and develop more rapidly. When trust is broken, development and growth slow down. This slowdown can become a complete stoppage or even mark the end of the entire relationship. This is true in all kinds of relationships both personal and professional. The book favors examples from business. Unfortunately, some of the corporate examples in this book have not stood the test of time and revelations in the media. This brings up the main weakness of the book. If the ideas had been applied to a broader spectrum of relationships the book would be more universal and would not risk becoming dated before its time. Overall, it is very good information and it should be read and applied.

Excellent book on what trust is, how to build it (or restore it) and why it is so critical in our relationships and organizations. Wish I would have read this book sooner.
This book was fine, I guess; what it says makes sense. I just find books like this (self-help books, management books) irritating, self-evident, unnecessary. Maybe they're not unnecessary, because they sell like crazy, but I read them and think "well, duh."
I didn't seek this book out. Instead, I read it on a recommendation from my company's CEO. It's one of those books that contains knowledge so simple and well articulated that it's difficult to imagine a time when you didn't already know it. I would highly recommend this one to anybody.

Good points, but most were already obvious to me. Short, so painless to listen in case there is something to help you do better in your life.

Read this is you're interested in trust—I appreciated the structured exploration, defining, and examination of trust as a concept, especially when it can be so nebulous and mean such different things to different people. The frameworks and behaviours shared are both easy to understand and practical.
