Without trust people give up on relationships and leave organizations. Ken Blanchard
(from Trust Across America’s Weekly Reflections on Trust 2014)
Last week we added a new blog feature called Organizational Trust this Week, beginning with the “Good” and ending with the “Ugly.” Each story contains a trust component and at least one lesson for organizations seeking to make trust a business imperative.
THE GOOD
Under new leadership, SAC Capital (now Point 72 Asset Management) will “Reward What Matters”
What happens when the word “integrity” is omitted from the mission statement?
This boss lists “being direct” as a key to good leadership.
THE BAD
Are the actions of the new Walmart CEO trust-builders or trust-busters?
The food retailer who took one step forward and two steps back in building trust.
Are Boards moving in a “trustworthy leadership” direction in their selection of CEOs?
THE UGLY
Dear CDC, You can’t win back something that never existed.
