In this episode of the Montgomery Companies Podcast we have the opportunity and privilege to talk about all things TRUST, with none other than the foremost expert on trust - David Horsager.
With certified partners on six continents, David is working hard to tackle the global trust crisis by developing trusted leaders in organizations on a global scale. David is the best-selling author of multiple books, including The Trust Edge, and Trusted Leader. He also heads up THE largest research study on trust each year – the Trust Outlook study – and hosts one of the top podcasts in Leadership Development, the Trusted Leader Show podcast.
Through his work with large organizations such as FedEx, Toyota, the Department of Homeland Security, Global Governments, and even the New York Yankees, David has learned that at the core of any dysfunction in a company or organization, are trust issues. Leadership, sales, marketing, diversity, education, innovation – these are often cited as the source of dysfunction in an institution. The truth? Any issue in any of these areas is rooted in TRUST. When you solve the trust issue, you’ll be able to solve the problem.
Join us as we discuss some of the greatest challenges facing leaders today in building trust, and examine some of David’s top principles to help us build trust globally and institutionally. We’ll learn how clarity can help solve most of what we call “communication issues,” and how you can establish clear and effective communication both personally and professionally. We’ll also dive into how asking “how?” – and not just once, but three, five, seven, or more times – can help bring an idea into action. Finally, we talk about the importance of commitment, and how you can rebuild trust if you have a history of breaking commitments, either to yourself, or others.
Any leader, at any level personally or professionally, will find some major motivating ideas that you can implement tomorrow in this podcast!
