Building Trust at Work with special guest Charles Feltman -- Leadership Skills TeleSeminar

Trust_fall Trust is a precondition for teamwork.

Teamwork without trust is like water without oxygen. You don’t look at water and think oxygen, but if you tried to make the stuff without it you’d end up high and dry.

Trust makes all of the other things we want in teams possible:

  • engagement
  • commitment
  • collaboration
  • productive conflict
  • innovation
  • positive results

Which ultimately leads us to success and well being.

But trust doesn’t just happen.

Building and maintaining trust requires paying attention to what we say and do.

Today’s workplaces are minefields of limited time, competing commitments, opposing demands, and mis-communication that can easily lead to unintended breaches of trust. Even one small breach can sow seeds of distrust. Once distrust takes hold it becomes toxic to everyone involved.

This teleseminar will give you a framework and practice for building, maintaining and, when necessary, restoring strong trust in teams.

You’ll learn:

  1. Key practices to build and maintain trusting relationships at work.
  2. The most common enemies of trust in the workplace and what you can do to avoid them.
  3. How the cognitive, emotional, and physiological context of trust differs from that of distrust, and how each affects a team’s ability to perform.
  4. How to talk about issues of trust and distrust with peers, subordinates, and supervisors.
  5. How to repair damaged or broken trust.
