As the author, I come to this topic not just as a professional, but as someone who has experienced the profound impact of trust in my own life and career. My journey began with a deep appreciation for ethical principles, instilled by my upbringing and reinforced through years of navigating the complexities of the business world. As a negotiator, sales leader, and healthcare advocate for ethical practices, I’ve learned that trust is not merely a component of success; it is the foundation upon which all success is built.

The book explores the role of trust in negotiations, leadership, and marketing, highlighting strategies for building and sustaining trust through transparency and accountability.

This book was a great read! I have been working in some capacity or another for 25 years…almost 20 of that being in my chosen career field. Trusting your coworkers and superiors, as well as being trusted to be an expert in your field, is one of the most important factors in building morale. Integrity is extremely important and something I try to pass down to my own kids. This is a great read for anyone hoping to improve climate and capitalize on the gains of creating a trusting work environment.

From establishing trust all the way through rebuilding the loss of it, I found useful tools and guidance in each chapter.
