Key leadership skill to master
Trust forms the foundation of healthy and thriving workplaces. It lies at the heart of a functioning, cohesive team. Without trust, teamwork is all but impossible. In the context of the workplace, trust is the confidence among members of your organization and teams that peers' intentions are good, and that there is no reason to be protective or careful around the group.
Ask yourself:
-
Can you be truly vulnerable and authentic with your team members?
-
Can you express your opinion in a candid and open manner without fear of reprisal in a team meeting?
-
Can you count on your team members and colleagues to provide you with honest and timely feedback critical to the success of your project?
If you have answered “no" or "I am not sure" to any of these questions, then this training is for you. If you are responsible for leading a team and you want to strengthen accountability, commitment or results delivery, then this training is for you and for your team members. If you are hoping to advance your career and have fewer interpersonal failures, this training will help you to avoid many pitfalls.
