Key Factors That Impact Trust
In my last blog on trust we considered an excellent question raised by a young professional who is in her 20’s. She raised a good question: How do we build trust in an environment that seems to have a lot of turnover?
In that article, I referenced 3 key questions to consider, drawn from Hurley’s (2006) article in the Harvard Business Review. He explains that for the truster (the person choosing to trust another) there are three Decision-Maker Factors posed in these initial questions:
How risk-tolerant is the Truster?How well-adjusted is the Truster?How much relative power does the Truster have in the situation?

Who can I trust with all this turnover?
After my last blog on most of us having trust issues, I was talking to a young professional, in her 20’s about the idea of trust. She raised a terrific question: How do we build trust in an environment that seems to have a lot of turnover? That got me to thinking.
If we have a smaller, to mid-size team that works in fairly close proximity and we all know each other, it can be a setback when one or two people take another position and leave the team.
In the gig-economy, with the so-called “war for talent” and the increasing mobility of smart, talented people it gets tougher all the time to have the kind of continuity and longevity that most of us desire in our organizations. So, what are we to do when we need to grow trust, and perhaps even recover from feeling a little bit hurt when a team member moves on?
