Building Trust With Your Virtual Team

NOTE TIME CHANGE!!

The results from the Edelman Global Trust Survey (2017) declared “Trust is in crisis around the world!”. Three years later it is arguably worse.

2020 has seen many of us shift to a home-office work environment amidst a general unease and uncertainty about not only our workplace, but our world. We are less connected and more fearful for our health and safety, necessary precursors for trust to exist.

Successful [long-term] leaders focus on building trust in their teams and organizations.They understand that trust is truly foundational to of all of our relationships; with it we have more energy, less stress, higher collaboration and productivity.

So where do we start?

First looking inward, and understanding how our brain works in relation to trust allows us to leverage this information and create conditions for trust to grow. Next we can explore and asses our feelings of trust, or the trustworthiness of ourselves and others, in relation to 4 domains: Sincerity, Reliability, Competence and Care. Now we are prepared to discuss trust within a more objective framework and focus on what’s working and where the opportunities are.
