Today’s businesses are navigating a cultural dichotomy unlike any we’ve seen before. Organizations are scrambling to keep pace with the breakneck speed of change in the market, while navigating increasing expectations for a workplace experience that is meaningful, equitable, and human-centered. Many organizations are struggling to meet these demands on both fronts, with employee engagement falling to an 11-year low.
Research has shown that trust is the most critical ingredient for building resilient organizations that can survive and thrive in the complexity of today’s market and 93 percent of business executives agree that the ability to build and maintain trust improves the bottom line. Data shows that lower trust among employees has an immediate impact on everyday operations. The risk is not that people leave—it's that they stay and work “half-heartedly.”
Join the ATD OrgDev Advisory Board for a 60-minute webinar and interactive discussion on the importance of trust as an empowering cultural dynamic that enables intelligent failure, authentic collaboration, rapid innovation, and effective problem-solving within and across teams.
