Trust is one of the most urgent and misunderstood forces shaping our workplaces. According to a Gallup Poll, just 19 percent of employees trust their leaders.
In the premiere episode of The SHIFT Forward, Dr. Cindy Pace is joined by top management thinker, CEO of Intangible Labs, speaker and author of “Our Best Work,” Nilofer Merchant. They unpack the trust megaSHIFT from institutional promises to earned trust, credibility, and transparency.
