Building Trust: The 3 Steps Formula
<p>Knowing how to build and maintain trust has been the best career catalyst for me. I managed to navigate two acquisitions and grow from a Junior Engineer role to an Engineering Director in under a decade. It was a journey of accelerated growth with a lot of challenges.</p>
<p>Let’s first see why trust is such an important element in our society.</p>
<h1><strong>Why is trust so important?</strong></h1>
<p>Thousands of years ago, if somebody new were joining a tribe,<strong> two things</strong> would have mattered the most:</p>
<ul>
<li>If they<strong> were competent</strong> — good hunters for that time, able to provide for people in the tribe</li>
<li>If they <strong>were trustworthy</strong> — they would not run away with the tribe’s food and/or kill everybody in their sleep.</li>
</ul>
<p>The same is valid today. Whenever somebody joins a new environment, the question on everyone’s subconscious mind is the same:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><em>Is that person </em><strong><em>competent</em></strong><em> and </em><strong><em>trustworthy</em></strong><em>?</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>While most people focus on improving competency, trustworthiness is essential.</p>
