1. The F.I.R.S.T. Tip

Every team by default should enjoy high levels of trust. But why isn’t it always this way?

Considering that we all intuitively know how to demonstrate high trust behaviours. And we all have positive relationships in some areas of our lives.

The question is… what prevents people from deploying high trust behaviours in their teams?

If your team is also grappling with this issue, remember that trust (like good health, or a healthy marriage) is not a given, it needs to be nurtured.

The simplest action that each one of us can take to ensure we enjoy high trust is to extend unconditional positive regard to the other person.

After all, the best way to know if we can trust someone, is to TRUST someone.

So extend the courtesy of trust … as automatically and intuitively as you would give up your seat in a bus for an elderly person or a pregnant lady, and you will get to reap the amazing benefits of high trust relationships.

Tip: The best way to know if you can trust someone, is to trust someone.
