"Without authenticity you can never develop trust. Without trust, you will never develop people. Without people you will never develop
followers, you have no one to lead."
With this mantra I ended my last article questioning whether authentic leadership is fad or salvation. The article contained an ingredient for success ? success in your career, private life and relationships with people in general.
I guess you already figured out what that ingredient was…. Trust.
The Concept of Trust
A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind Patrice a patch jerseys Patrice a patch jerseys of scared so he asked his little daughter: "Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river." The little girl said: "No, Dad. You hold my hand."
"What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father.?"There's a big difference," replied the little girl. "If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go."
In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond. You can train people to think quality, to think service ? but then there's the delivery: are the results coming from a place of truly believing in a commitment to quality or service and that they are giving their best, or are they simply going through the motions?
We have all been served by those that have been trained in what to say, however, when we experience what they say as truly felt ? then we trust the intent and it creates a bond where we want to do business.
The concept of trust as such is simple: build on individual confidence and eliminate fear as an operating principle.
