Trust is collapsing in institutions and leadership teams, and when your people stop believing you, execution falls apart.
In this short solo episode, I unpack why trust is in crisis and what CEOs can do to rebuild it quickly and credibly. I talk about:
Why trust is the real currency of leadership and what happens to execution when it erodes
How overpromising and underdelivering quietly destroy credibility over time
Why silence and lack of transparency during restructurings fuel fear, rumours and attrition
How hypocrisy and misaligned actions (rewarding toxic high performers, ignoring values) kill culture
Three practical ways to rebuild trust fast: do what you say, communicate uncomfortable truths, and align words, actions and rewards
If you’re leading in an environment where promises have been broken or engagement is slipping, this episode will help you treat trust as a strategic asset and rebuild it through integrity, transparency and aligned action.
