MR Covey is a national speaker and writer, the son of Stephen Covey, whose most popular book was The 7 Habits of Highly
Effective People.
It's an interesting point that trust can effectively speed up interactions by eliminating unnecessary questioning/investigating. I generally trust those around me until I'm given a reason not to, and I find that this can make most interactions run smoothly. I think there is power in placing trust on others and giving them a chance to rise to the occasion, so I would agree that the 'hot dog stand' example is potentially effective.
I highly recommend the 7 Habits of Highly Successful People and also the companion book for Teens.
