Welcome back to The TrustBuilder Podcast, where hosts Scott and Brad, along with special guest Morgan Hartanov, tackle the tough questions surrounding trust and team dynamics.

In this critical Episode 5, we dive into the question: "When Teams Stop Talking... Is It a Trust Issue?" We explore how silence can be misread and when a lack of communication signals a deeper problem within the team or relationship.

The conversation covers:

The difference between comfortable silence (a sign of strong trust) and ominous silence (an indicator of a breakdown).

Why leaders should treat silence like a warning light on a dashboard - a signal that something needs to be addressed.

The connection between cooperative trust and the need for teams to engage in conflict and repair to become truly robust.

If you are a leader, consultant, or team member looking to understand and resolve critical communication breakdowns, this episode will give you the tools to open the dialogue and diagnose the root cause of the quiet.
