Building organizational trust is a whole lot easier if people truly, deeply, emotionally like their boss. Robert Galford, Center for Leading Organizations
(from Trust Across America’s Weekly Reflections on Trust 2014)
Organizational Trust this Week is a new feature beginning with the “Good”, moving through the “Debatable” and occasionally ending with the “Ugly.” Each story contains a trust component and at least one lesson for organizations seeking to make trust a business imperative.
THE GOOD
This CEO sees trust as the ULTIMATE career weapon.
Not all marketing firms are “spinning” the truth. Here’s an example where trust matters in marketing.
THE DEBATABLE
Are you trustworthy just because you didn’t break any rules?
Two new reports offer different conclusions about whether big companies offer too little disclosure about their operations, or perhaps too much.
How about a Chief Trust Officer first? Chief Distruption Officer will bring innovation, but not without trust.
THE UGLY
Who wins when the Chairman and CEO don’t get along? Nobody. And in this case, especially the shareholders.
Imagine the level of innovation, engagement and success when employees don’t trust their employer.
