The Forum reports that the most common ways someone loses trust are:
· Being inconsistent,
· Lacking transparency,
· Lacking leadership skills,
· Taking undue credit/passing blame,
· Talking behind employees’ backs,
· Not “walking the talk”,
· Poor communication/interpersonal skills.
Instead, to build trust, one should:
· Be open/transparent,
· Listen/demonstrate care,
· “Walk the talk”,
· Recognize hard work,
· Provide a clear and consistent message,
· Give constructive feedback/coaching.
Do people trust you?
