Trust is the foundation of the greatest teams. Trust is essential in any kind of team, whether we are talking about an individual department, cross-organizational teams that come together for a project, or a business-client relationship. According to Thin Book of Trust by Charles Feltman, trust is rooted in four behaviors. I believe developing these behaviors must be part of your business strategy because this foundational trust contributes to the collective success of all partners.
Develop these four behaviors to instill trust:
Competence
Care
Sincerity
Reliability
Statice CEO Kathy Shanley was just featured in a Forbes Coaches Council article on how developing trusting behaviors should be part of your business strategy.
