What kind of leader do you want to be?
The research on trust is very clear.
Leaders who are trusted are much more effective.
Teams that trust one another are more effective.
And organizations in which high levels of trust exist among employees are more effective.
This all starts with you as a leader.
Can people count on you to be honest with them and to tell the truth – the whole truth, without any “spinning?”
Do you have the best interest of your team in mind at all times?
When you are faced with a dilemma, can people count on you to work it out as best you can?
Do you speak up when you know it is the right thing to do? And how about – when you know it may not be in your best interest to do so?
These are not easy things in a world that often rewards selfishness. But if you can answer “yes” to these questions, then you are on the path to becoming a genuine leader of integrity.
