Creating and nurturing that trust is one of those precious things that takes chunks out of our diminishing currency of time in the world of work.
Trust and respect go hand in hand: It is very difficult for someone to trust you if they do not believe you respect them, and probably vice versa as well. People may have different value systems for trust, leading or working in such a multigenerational, multicultural business environment requires acting in ways that provide clear reasons to decide to trust. The true trust is multidimensional. It encompasses trusting self, trusting others, and earning the trust of others. If you respect others and inspire their respect in you - appreciation, trust, etc, comes easier.
Communication is the very way to build trust: Communication is the very way to build trust, and lack of trust is an often overlooked barrier to communication. Trust enforces openness by embracing divergent thoughts and respecting differences. When there is a lack of communication, it is the lack of trust among people and management. And it significantly increases the probability for failure. Communicate, delegate, trust and hold accountable.
Mutual trust is paramount for effectiveness: TRUST is bi-directional. Reciprocity is an important part of building mutual trust and allows predictability and stability in the relationship. Reciprocity works because of shared goals, which create less stress on the relationship. Delegation is the trust. Help people not to fail, and if they do, show yourself to be trustworthy by supporting them.
Trust, but verify. Creating and nurturing that trust is one of those precious things that takes chunks out of our diminishing currency of time in the world of work.
