Gaining Employee Trust – How to Build Trust with a Team


Listen Later

Gaining employee trust - working out how to build trust with a team – is a key step to building and  improving team performance. Without trust, delivering on all the other responsibilities of a manager become so much harder. I share 7 actions for how to build trust with your team.

Winning team trust is most easily done while being genuine, while doing your best to help and support team members reach team goals. Start by understanding there are two types of trust most people look for. The steps to gain the trust of your team should keep both in mind.

Winning employee trust should start with listening. Ask for the team’s input, ideas and solutions. When you get them, choose the appropriate ones and act – put them into practice. Taking action is a great start to gaining staff trust.

Encourage trust with your team by empowering them. Let them do their jobs. Extent trust to earn trust back.

Winning the teams trust at work by being open and transparent. This holds you accountable in the same way as they are being held accountable. Plus it gives the employees more opportunity to be autonomous and contribute to solutions.

Gain the trust of a team by demonstrating consistency of action. This create psychological safety with employees – they know what to expect from you in a range of situations. 

Lead by example when building trust in a team. Live the same rules that you are asking your team to live by. Show the team how to behave and what you expect of them.

There is no better way to winning the teams trust – that I know – than working hard in service of the team. Help, support, coach, remove problems  - anything that will fairly help the team reach its goals and support team members.

Build trust with employees is easy when you have a trustworthy mindset and management approach. Look after your team, protect your team and develop your team. Work to make it as easy as possible for them to do a great job.
