Blogchain: OrgGoalCapabilities → Trust → Contracts

Trust. Old-fashioned virtues will help you build trust: consistency, clear communication, and a willingness to tackle awkward questions. But because trust takes years to build and moments to lose, building trust requires playing a defensive game too.

Avoid these five simple, yet common mistakes:

  1. Inconsistent messages
  2. Inconsistent standards
  3. Misplaced benevolence
  4. Ignoring the role office politics plays in organizations
  5. Restricting the flow of information
