Why Your Team Doesn't Trust You (And How to Fix It)


Listen Later

Before leaders will accept accountability, change their mindset or raise their standards they first need to feel safe enough to tell the truth.

After leading a mindset workshop for 12 successful insurance leaders, Brent and Jenny share what it really takes to break through resistance and create trust. Rather than beginning with sales numbers, recruiting goals, or performance expectations, they started with the Mirror Exercise. Helping each leader honestly examine where they were falling short personally and professionally.

They also unpack their Triple A Framework: Awareness, Acceptance, and Action. Leaders can't change what they refuse to acknowledge. They can't ask their people to live by standards they are unwilling to live by. But many do. Through honest conversations, personal stories, and powerful realizations, the group began to understand that culture is not something written on a wall, it's demonstrated by the leader daily.

The training ended with a simple 40-day HABIT Challenge: Hydrate, Activity, Bible or spiritual reflection, Intellect, and Thankfulness. These small daily commitments created a practical starting point for stronger mindset, greater personal discipline, and more credible leadership. Trust is not built by what leaders tell people to do. It is built by what people consistently see their leaders do.
