Blanchard – Building Trust
Trust is at the heart of every relationship and is especially critical in the workplace. In fact, the primary factor affecting employee turnover is whether or not the employee and their manager develop a trusting relationship
Brought to you by Blanchard Aotearoa, the Building Trust programme teaches how to build and maintain trust, to increase engagement, foster creativity, and garner commitment.
Trust can be hard to earn and easy to lose. Successful and healthy workplaces are built on a foundation of trust. When work relationships are rooted in trust, companies see improved communication, greater innovation, and increased revenue overall.
But when trust is broken, the work environment can become toxic. People become stressed and work in silos, there’s low collaboration, and morale and productivity drop. If employees don’t trust their coworkers or leader, they won’t perform to their potential. This can result in turnover that could have been avoided.
At Blanchard®, we know it can be challenging to discern and address trust issues within your organisation. That’s why we created a four step model that is easy to learn, easy to remember, and easy to use on the job. Our Building Trust program teaches leaders and their team members how to build trust to increase engagement, creativity, and commitment to the organisation.
Understand and Develop the Elements of Trust
We know how important trust is in every relationship. Our Building Trust programme can help leaders and their team members learn how to build trust in the workplace and repair it when it’s broken.
Based on 30 years of research, our trust experts have developed a simple yet powerful model that provides a common language and framework focused on the specific behaviours that build trust.
With the Building Trust programme, individuals can understand the impact of their behaviours on building or eroding trust and identify those aspects that need attention to develop and maintain trusting relationships.
