How Do You Build Trust In A Trust-Deficient World?

How Do You Build Trust In A Trust-Deficient World? | #BetterLeadership | Scoop.it

While I feel much of this has already been discovered and documented on The Speed of  Trust by Stephen Covey Jr.  I appreciate that there is now a scientific model to back it up.

  8. Role modeling trustworthy behavior
  9. More time for creativity and relaxation
  10. More money in your pocket (people want to do business with those they trust)

What is the level of trust in your team?

 

Chaos? Learning? Optimizing? Or, Innovating?

Nice descriptive framework, but it needs a 'how to get there' as well...

Ready for a vulnerability hangover? Five ideas from Brené Brown

Ready for a vulnerability hangover? Five ideas from Brené Brown | #BetterLeadership | Scoop.it

Brené’s big idea is that vulnerability is good for you, or as she puts it, ‘vulnerability is our most accurate measure of courage’.

 

We live in a culture where making yourself vulnerable – exposing your fears and uncertainties, taking emotional risks – is considered a form of weakness, and something most of us want to run away from.

 

But Brené’s research reveals the hugely positive outcomes that emerge from stepping into the arena of vulnerability. It is precisely when we expose ourselves – perhaps in a relationship or at work – that ‘we have experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives’.

AlGonzalezinfo's insight:

A brilliant friend of mine once explained to me, "trusting others is difficult because it makes us vulnerable".  This is a fantastic article about why being vulnerable is good, plus so much more.

6 Steps to Sustainable Leadership: Feedback Mechanisms

6 Steps to Sustainable Leadership: Feedback Mechanisms | #BetterLeadership | Scoop.it

An effective tactic for supervisors in the implementation of a feedback mechanism is to invite feedback from all staff members.  

 

The supervisor must make sure everyone knows that the intent is to help the supervisor be more effective and to learn from everyone in the team.

It is important to stress that this needs to be a respectful session, and the supervisor must be prepared to actively listen while avoiding becoming defensive.

 

If this is done appropriately, the supervisor has an opportunity to “model the way” to receive feedback for every team member.  The supervisor can then hold a team meeting and report a summary of the feedback he or she received to the whole staff.

 

During this meeting, the supervisor can also share his or her plans to address that feedback.

 

AlGonzalezinfo's insight:

It is amazing how much we can learn from our staff members.  Its not easy to actively listen, but, if done correctly, this can truly increase the trust level of a team.
