Trust is never static. Everything you do impacts others’ level of trust in you because there is a difference between being trustworthy and being trusted. How you behave as a leader is always under the microscope, so be very conscious of whether you are building or diminishing trust.
Have you ever mistakenly mistrusted someone who was in fact trustworthy? A common misconception is that honesty alone breeds trust. Bridging the trust gap is a marriage of character and skill.
I say what I mean and I mean what I say.
I am receptive to others’ ideas and opinions and give my own.
I do not judge other people.
You can count on me to keep my commitments.
These are indicators of your signature strengths. Play them as your trump cards.
This is a clue to a personal constraint. Push yourself to do the uncomfortable and operate within this element.
Increasing your trust level increases your impact, elevating your influence! How important is influence for you?
