Book The Truth about Trust in Business

Download or read book The Truth about Trust in Business written by Vanessa Hall and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trust gets a lot of lip service in the business world, particularly in the current economic climate. But according to author Vanessa Hall, few of us really understand what trust in, how to build it, and how to determine if others view us and our organizations as trustworthy. And issues of trust exact high costs for us - ethically and financially. Hall delivers a three-pronged approach to building trust based on assessment of expectations, needs, and promises. With a practical model, compelling insights, real case studies, and easy-to-implement tips, Hall offers readers: knowledge of how to ensure that trust, once established, is not broken; guidance on how to become more trustworthy brands and businesses; and assessment tools for determining how trustworthy you are in each area of business. Delving into each area of business- sales, management, branding and marketing, customer services, leadership - the guidebook gives companies and leaders the tools they need to earn trust, reap the rewards, and stand apart from the competition.

Book The Philosophy of Trust

Download or read book The Philosophy of Trust written by Paul Faulkner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trust is central to our social lives. We know by trusting what others tell us. We act on that basis, and on the basis of trust in their promises and implicit commitments. So trust underpins both epistemic and practical cooperation and is key to philosophical debates on the conditions of its possibility. It is difficult to overstate the significance of these issues. On the practical side, discussions of cooperation address what makes society possible-of how it is that life is not a Hobbesian war of all against all. On the epistemic side, discussions of cooperation address what makes the pooling of knowledge possible-and so the edifice that is science. But trust is not merely central to our lives instrumentally; trusting relations are themselves of great value, and in trusting others, we realise distinctive forms of value. What are these forms of value, and how is trust central to our lives? These questions are explored and developed in this volume, which collects fifteen new essays on the philosophy of trust. They develop and extend existing philosophical discussion of trust and will provide a reference point for future work on trust.

Book The Truth

Download or read book The Truth written by Neil Strauss and published by . This book was released on 2016-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SOCIOLOGY: FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS. NO MORE GAMES. IT'S TIME FOR THE TRUTH. Neil Strauss made a name for himself advocating freedom, sex and opportunity as the author of The Game. Then he met the woman who forced him to question everything. Neil's search for answers took him from Viagra-laden free-love orgies to sex addiction clinics, from cutting-edge science labs to modern-day harems, and, most terrifying of all, to his own mother. What he discovered changed everything he knew about love, sex, relationships and, ultimately, himself. The Truth may have the same effect on you.

Book Truth  Lies and Trust on the Internet

Download or read book Truth Lies and Trust on the Internet written by Monica T. Whitty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2008-08-28 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet is often presented as an unsafe or untrustworthy space: where children are preyed upon by paedophiles, cannibals seek out victims, offline relationships are torn apart by online affairs and where individuals are addicted to gambling, love, and cybersex. While many of these stories are grounded in truth, they do paint a rather sensationalized view of the Internet, the types of people who use it, and the interactions that take place online. Simultaneously, researchers claim that the Internet allows individuals to express their true selves, to develop 'hyperpersonal' relationships characterised by high levels of intimacy and closeness. At the heart of these competing visions of the Internet as a social space are the issues of truth, lies and trust. This book offers a balanced view of the Internet by presenting empirical data conducted by social scientists, with a concentrated focus on psychological studies. It argues that the Internet’s anonymity which can enable, for instance, high levels of self-disclosure in a relationship, is also responsible for many of its more negative outcomes such as deception and flaming. This is the first book to develop a coherent model of the truth-lies paradox, with specific reference to the critical role of trust. Truth, Lies and Trust on the Internet is a useful text for psychology students and academics interested in Internet behaviour, technology, and online deviant behaviour, and related courses in sociology, media studies and information studies.

  • ISBN : 0198029241
  • Pages : 193 pages

Download or read book Building Trust written by Robert C. Solomon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-05-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In business, politics, marriage, indeed in any significant relationship, trust is the essential precondition upon which all real success depends. But what, precisely, is trust? How can it be achieved and sustained? And, most importantly, how can it be regained once it has been broken? In Building Trust, Robert C. Solomon and Fernando Flores offer compelling answers to these questions. They argue that trust is not something that simply exists from the beginning, something we can assume or take for granted; that it is not a static quality or "social glue." Instead, they assert that trust is an emotional skill, an active and dynamic part of our lives that we build and sustain with our promises and commitments, our emotions and integrity. In looking closely at the effects of mistrust, such as insidious office politics that can sabotage a company's efficiency, Solomon and Flores demonstrate how to move from naïve trust that is easily shattered to an authentic trust that is sophisticated, reflective, and possible to renew. As the global economy makes us more and more reliant on "strangers," and as our political and personal interactions become more complex, Building Trust offers invaluable insight into a vital aspect of human relationships.

Book excerpt: Disregard the myth of the lone professional “superman” and the rest of our culture’s go-it alone mentality. The real path to success in your work and in your life is through creating an inner circle of “lifeline relationships” – deep, close relationships with a few key trusted individuals who will offer the encouragement, feedback, and generous mutual support every one of us needs to reach our full potential. Whether your dream is to lead a company, be a top producer in your field, overcome the self-destructive habits that hold you back, lose weight or make a difference in the larger world, Who’s Got Your Back will give you the roadmap you’ve been looking for to achieve the success you deserve. Keith Ferrazzi, the internationally renowned thought leader, consultant, and bestselling author of Never Eat Alone, shows us that becoming a winner in any field of endeavor requires a trusted team of advisors who can offer guidance and help to hold us accountable to achieving our goals. It is the reason PH.D candidates have advisor teams, top executives have boards, world class athletes have fitness coaches, and presidents have cabinets. In this step-by-step guide to the powerful principles behind personal growth and change, you’ll learn how to: · Master the mindsets that will help you to build deeper, more trusting “lifeline relationships” · Overcome the career-crippling habits that hold you back, once and for all · Get further, faster by setting goals in a dramatically more powerful way · Use “sparring” as a productive tool to make the decisions that will fuel personal success · Replace the yes men in your life with those who get it and care – and will hold you accountable to achieving your goals · Lower your guard and let others help! None of us can do it alone. We need the perspective and advice of a trusted team. And in Who’s Got Your Back, Keith Ferrazzi shows us how to put our own “dream team” together.

Download or read book How Trust Works written by Dr. Peter H. Kim, PhD and published by Flatiron Books. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the world's leading expert on trust repair, a guide to understanding the most essential foundation of our relationships and communities. When our trust is broken, and when our own trustworthiness is called into question, many of us are left wondering what to do. We barely know how trust works. How could we possibly repair it? Dr. Peter H. Kim, the world’s leading expert in the rapidly growing field of trust repair, has conducted over two decades of groundbreaking research to answer that question. In How Trust Works, he draws on this research and the work of other social scientists to reveal the surprising truths about how relationships are built, how they are broken, and how they are repaired. Dr. Kim’s work shows how we are often more trusting than we think and how easily our trust in others can be distorted. He illustrates these insights with accounts of some of the most striking and well-known trust violations that have occurred in modern times and unveils the crucial secrets behind when and why our attempts to repair trust are effective, and which breaches of confidence are just too deep. How Trust Works transforms our understanding of our deepest bonds, giving us the tools to build strong and supportive relationships on every level. With our families, coworkers, and friends. With the groups, organizations, and institutions that touch our lives. And even with societies and nations.

Book The Importance of Truth Telling and Trust

Download or read book The Importance of Truth Telling and Trust written by Kenneth J. Sanney and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few principles influence success as fundamentally as truth. Truthfulness is the foundation upon which human relationships are built. Truth is the antecedent to trust and trust is the antecedent to cooperation. Without truth, sustainable success is impossible in human dealings. Hence, the importance of truth has been the subject of theological and scholarly pursuit for centuries. Since the latter part of the 20th century, the burgeoning fields of applied ethics has joined in this pursuit. In a 1992 essay, Stanford Business Professor Ronald A. Howard observed: “[t]he ethical dilemmas which my students and business associates seem to face evolve around issues of truth telling.” From Wells Fargo's creation of over 2 million fake accounts, to GM's deadly ignition switches, to the ten-billion-dollar fraud that was the healthcare and life-science company Theranos, Inc., today's ethical dilemmas continue to evolve around issues of truth telling. How truthful we choose to be with others has a significant bearing upon reciprocal truthfulness and trust. Adherence to truthfulness and the subsequent development of trust are vital for meaningful interpersonal relationships, healthy organizational cultures, and prosperous societies.Successful leaders recognize that the organizational cost of institutionalized deceit, in both financial and human terms, is too expensive to condone. In the past seven decades, we have seen an erosion of trust in many of our institutions. Only 3% of Americans trust the federal government to do what is right “just about always” while just 14% trust the federal government to do what is right “most of the time” for a combined 17% of Americans expressing trust in the federal government. In 1958, the combined percent of Americans expressing such trust was 73%. A foundation built on a first-order principle of truth telling will better equip our students with the skills to effectively deal with the moral dilemmas that evolve around truth telling and build trust with those in their professional and personal lives.

Book Love  Respect and Trust

Download or read book Love Respect and Trust written by Stephen D. Druley and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2016-01-29 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love, Respect and Trust is a work about solidifying healthy relationships, particularly, in marriages so that the quality of our life improves. As a mathematician, I have attempted to wrap structure around the architecture of marriage so that couples can peer into its elements and begin to see the mechanisms for happiness. Having been married to the lovely woman in red for 50 years has given me a plethora of human experiences and wisdom. Being married to Karen was like living a symphony. The concepts for improvement are built around 7 new relationship models and there are a number of tools and techniques now available for the couple to use to make breakthroughs in the interpersonal side of the equation. By equipping partners with some simple tools we can begin to solve problems in the marriage like never before. If the quality of the relationship is low then we struggle and the relationship can be a burden. There is no reason that a relationship cannot reflect total joy. It's a matter of wanting to make a difference and following the guidelines here to set you in the right direction. The bottom line is that we can enjoy life more, there is less stress on the family, trust is now a common denominator, the children are subjected to a favorable learning environment and everyone is having fun. My purpose here is to begin to bring marriages back to what they were meant to be... filled with love and the right ingredients. If we can save more marriages, I believe we can improve the quality of life in America and improve the bottom lines of all businesses. Productivity would improve and our economy would turn around for the better. A happily run household is like a small engine contributing to society in a team environment and setting exceptional examples for our future leaders. I dedicate this work to my wife, Karen, who provided the inspiration for this book and set the example for a mother, grandmother and wife. My children loved their mother and would always go to her for advice. My youngest daughter shot herself in the head partly due to her passing. The grief is sometimes overwhelming but this book is a cinema of wonderful experiences for our 50 years of joy. It is full of lessons learned, problems resolved and celebrations of great times together. Our relationship can be characterized as a passionate one full of music, intelligent discussion and the love and support of our heavenly Father. Acknowledgements I think this book is a masterpiece of wisdom, practical advice and valuable lessons learned. I especially like the piece on Respect. So important. It's the kind of book that needs to be read multiple times in order to absorb the truth you are expressing. And it serves well as a go-to-guide for solving/understanding problems as they arise in a marriage. A body of work well-done with enduring value and wisdom!!! Michael Druley, Owner Executive Recruiting Partners South Bend, Indiana What a valuable piece of work this is. Everyone should read this. Your writing is heartfelt and your charts and graphs are clear and easily understood. Patricia Druley South Bend, Indiana"
