Sundance.

Yes, the "host" location of the world famous Film Festival is also the next location of the Speed of Trust workshop. For those of you who don't know, I am a member of the sales department that organizes this private workshop. Right now, our office is preparing for a well-qualified, fresh set of participants that will arrive in Utah tomorrow, or early Wednesday morning.


The workshop, Leading at the Speed of Trust, teaches participants the career-critical leadership skills necessary to become more promotable in today's volatile, new global economy. Doing business at the SPEED of TRUST™ dramatically lowers costs and increases profits and influence. This fast-paced, interactive course was developed by New York Times bestselling author Stephen M. R. Covey, informed by his unique hands-on perspective as CEO of a $100+ million-dollar company.

The workshop is based on years of hands-on operational leadership and organizational research. Participants are engaged in activities and examples based in their current work – not on theoretical examples or academic models. The goal of the course is to focus leaders on increasing the speed and magnitude of their individual and organizational results by improving trust and increasing influence with their key stakeholders—including, their direct reports, people to whom they report, and internal and external clients.

Adam, this is such a perfect job for you! A lot of the staff where I work have a copy of Dr. Stephen R. Covey's book. I particularly liked his perspective in the forword where he said, "Low trust is the greatest cost in life and organizations, including families. Low trust creates hidden agendas, politics, interpersonal conflict, interdepartmental rivalries, win-lose thinking, defensive and protective communication - all of which reduce the speed of trust. Low trust slows everything - every decision, every communication, and every relationship."
Best of luck with the workshop!
