Tip Tueday ~ Leadership


Leadership Resources 101

Building Trust: There are some roles and professions where trust is critical.

For instance, can you imagine being a firefighter, and not being able to trust other firefighters on your team? Or a doctor, and not being able to trust certain nurses or physicians in the emergency room? Or the flight crew in the cockpit that have to work together to maintain the safety of the flight?

People who have jobs like this need to be able to trust the people they work with. Without that trust, lives can, and likely will, be lost.

When you trust the people you work with and do business with, you can work together seamlessly. You're more effective; you're happy to take worthwhile risks; and you can work securely, knowing that your co-workers will support you - just as you will support them.

Building trust with those you work with and supervise is a very important first step in being a good leader.  Works well in parenting too!
