Trust is the foundation of psychological safety. Trust is the basis of risk taking that leads to successful transformation. An organization is not a collection of resources organized by functions. It is a living collection of teams that thrive, survive or die together. Trust is a leading indicator of organizational resilience and agility.

In one study spanning over 20 years, 58% of respondents say that one "Can't be too careful"  in matters of trust concerning co-workers and management. Gallup states that only about one in three employees surveyed in their database strongly agree that they trust their management. This corresponds well with our Trust Project database where 34.9% of respondents have answered "Yes, definitely" to the question, "Do you trust your manager?"
