“A high-trust organization is one in which employees feel safe to take risks, express themselves freely, and innovate”. Harvard Business Review.
“When trust is instilled in an organization, tasks get accomplished with less difficulty because people are more likely to collaborate and communicate with each other in productive ways. As a result, outcomes tend to be more successful.”
Check out the numbers associated with high-trust, from a HBR study:
✅ People report 74% less stress,
✅ 106% more energy at work,
✅ 50% higher productivity,
✅ 13% fewer sick days,
✅ 76% more engagement,
✅ 29% more satisfaction with their lives,
✅ and 40% less burnout than people at low-trust companies.
