The concept of trust may, at first glance, seem odd as a component of an effective business strategy. However, trust is at the heart of how we act in many
business situations and how we approach trust can be vital to our success. In this book the benefit of trust is explored as is the damage resulting from
lack of trust. In addition, you'll examine the three steps that encourage trust: asking for input and using it; doing what you say you'll do; and
delegating effectively.
