Vertrauenskommunikation – Trust Communication

Recent scandals tell us not to trust anybody or anything:  banks fail, poisoned food, bullying at work or fake news worldwide do not allow us to trust anymore. However, Angela Merkel herself said once in the news: the most important currency is trust! So what can we do nowadays to become trustworthy? When selling a new product or managing employees, we need trust since we build all our relationships on trust – but how can we build trust? One decisive tool is trust communication. When you are able to communicate trustful, you will be trusted by others. Thus, managers in all fields (e.g. Human Resources, Organizational Behavior or, Information Technology) have to understand how they can use their words and habits to be seen as trustworthy.

My research shows what you have to do when you want that others perceive you to be trustworthy. Communication can be very easy but is able to destroy every relationship when you do not pay attention.
