Trust is the foundation of a strong team, but how do you actually build it?
In this episode, I share simple, practical actions you can take as a leader to start strengthening trust, especially if you're leading a team that's been through some change or challenge.
I also introduce a handy "trust equation" to help you think about ways to build trust.
You'll hear:
- What trust really looks like at work (and how it shows up)
- Small behaviours that create safety and connection
- How to build trust when you're new to a team
Trust doesn't grow overnight, but with the right approach, it can build steadily.
