\"\"<\/a>Leaders should never take trust seriously.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After all, trust is just one of those “soft skills” that needs no particular attention, especially from leadership. For your next corporate event, instruct your communications department to hire a stand up comic to cover that “stuff” and provide the script in advance. Make sure it’s “compliance approved” and that your Board members attend.<\/p>\n

  1. Never trust a tree. They are always shady.<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. My trust issues started when my Mom said \u201ccome here, I\u2019m not gonna hit you!\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Raisin cookies that look like chocolate chip cookies are the main reason I have trust issues.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Never trust an atom. They make up everything.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. I got trust issues because people got lying issues.<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. It\u2019s funny how trust disappears when you are looking for the TV remote. Me: “Do you have the remote?”<\/span> Him: “No.” Me: “Stand up.”<\/span><\/li>\n
  7. People say I have trust issues. I don\u2019t believe them.<\/span><\/li>\n
  8. Watch who you trust. Even your teeth bite your tongue now and then.<\/span><\/li>\n
  9. I don\u2019t trust these stairs. They are always up to something.<\/span><\/li>\n
  10. I am pretty sure the definition of trust is giving your friend your phone without clearing the history.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I take no credit for any of these one-liners. I’m way too serious about trust! Our new diagnostic AIM Towards Trust<\/a> doesn’t deliver any jokes. Instead, it provides a baseline measurement from which to improve trust in any team or organization. It’s designed for trustworthy leaders who embrace trust as an intentional business strategy, not a joke.<\/p>\n
