While we have made it to a new year, we are still burdened with a declining public trust in our leadership and institutions. Our next guest has written an opinion piece that unpacks not only the value of public trust in society but reminds us of the power we hold as citizens when we recognize its currency. She challenges the reader to reconsider investing in our leaders and asks the reader to set new benchmarks for these leaders in order to regain our collective trust.
