A high-trust work environment is the foundation of a winning culture. When trust is pervasive in the workplace, employees feel supported, respected, and empowered. Engagement and retention increase in cultures built on trust, which leads to greater innovation, increased productivity, and improved business results.
Organizational trust relies on many of the same elements as individual trustworthiness: Honesty, consistent follow-through on commitments, clear communication, and personal autonomy. When people in your company fail to embody these characteristics — particularly at the leadership level — a culture of trust can start to deteriorate.
Growing and sustaining a culture of trust takes a focused, ongoing effort across your organization.
