Leaders in all walks of life want to be trusted. However, while some leaders
naturally excel at creating trust in their ranks, others never feel at ease with it.
With few substantive guides available in business literature, the topic remains
ambiguous for many.
The more I study trust, from an interpersonal and organizational standpoint,
the more I see a deep connection between trust and communication. In fact, I
often refer to trust, communication, and leadership as the three-legged stool
of modern business.
As youll notice in the headline, communication falls between trust and
leadership, and thats very intentional.
Communication is the thread that
enables leaders to create a culture of trust within their organization. Once
trust is established, leaders can achieve their goals more effectively and
efficiently with the full faith and support of their team.
