Importance of Trust in the Workplace

In Episode, we continue the theme of how to build trust in the workplace. In this one, we do a little experimentation with our content and tie the common theme of workplace trust that was highlighted in two very different ways across two recent Safeti podcast. What might be the positive outcomes of trusting your team? I’ll give you 3 that spring to mind for me:

1. It allows the team to bond better by making members feel like that they respect amongst their peers
2. Transparency – by demonstrating that you trust someone, in taking that risk, they are much more likely to take the risk to tell you the truth about what is happening on the ground operationally
3. When you can establish truth, that gives you a much more powerful position from which to truly improve and innovate, leading to much better outcomes for everyone involved, including the business.
