Truth-telling is at the core of trust. Any leader who wants to build a trustworthy organization must have an extremely comfortable relationship with the truth. No company is perfect and it\u2019s not necessary to air all the dirty laundry \u2013 just don\u2019t lie about it or intentionally mislead. In times of crisis, a habit of truth-telling yields particularly good returns.<\/span><\/h4>\n
