Why Trust Is the Future of Leadership with Stephen M.R. Covey | HR L&D Podcast
Episode 178
Tuesday, 24 March, 2026
Trust and Inspire is the leadership model redefining how great leaders unlock the best in their people — so why are so many organisations still stuck in command and control?This episode is sponsored by Deel. Hire, manage and pay – anyone, anywhere: https://www.deel.com/nickdayhr/In this episode of @thehrldpodcast Nick Day is joined by Stephen M.R. Covey, bestselling author of The Speed of Trust and Trust and Inspire, and former President and CEO of the Covey Leadership Center, to explore why the old model of leadership has reached its expiration date and what it takes to build the kind of high trust culture that attracts, retains and inspires the best people.Drawing on decades of research and work with organisations across 55 countries, Stephen breaks down why trust is a learnable skill and not a personality trait, what it actually looks like to extend trust in remote and hybrid teams without losing control, and how leaders can move from merely motivating people to truly inspiring them.This conversation explores how inspired employees outperform engaged ones by 56%, why the shift from command and control to trust and inspire is the most important leadership move of our time, and what Warren Buffett, Satya Nadella and Eric Yuan all have in common as leaders.A must listen for HR leaders, people managers, L&D professionals, and anyone responsible for building culture and developing leadership capability inside their organisation.Enjoyed this?
