Building Trust in Your Business Relationships - Ten Tips

Trust is formative in how you do your business. Your people will reflect your behaviours with them and at end of day, your customers and clients will be on receiving end of values of your business or organisation.

Where to start.

There are some simple things you can do with your people to ensure that they start to trust you. As a letter from Mike Emmott of Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development in UK says, in April 2005's UK Management Today says:-

"Our surveys show that only one in four employees trust senior management to look after their interests"
Is that not appalling? How on earth can businesses develop, survive and above all hang onto their best people if they are seen to be untrustworthy?

It's horrible.

There is an article below which talks a little about 'Rapport Building', but to supplement that, here are Ten Tips to help you build trust with your people.

1. Keep Your Promises
   If you can't keep a promise, then don't make it in first place - it is a big negative emotion being let down in this way.
   
2. Never Tell Lies
   Why would you? And if you have to, it's much, much more about you. Your people will really lose faith in you fast.
   
3. Keep Confidences
   Sometimes people will tell you things that they don't want broadcast - they need you to hear them sometimes. But keep it to yourself. Do not be instigator of gossip and rumour.
   
4. Communicate as Fully as Possible
   Keep as little from your people as you can. Communicate as openly as possible. Sometimes you have to hold some information back - it happens, but think really carefully about it.
