Building Successful Organizations on
Results, Integrity and Concern
With Dr. Robert Shaw, Princeton MCG

Trust has become more important as organizations embrace flat, highly flexible structures staffed by empowered employees. Trust is the belief that those on whom we depend will meet our positive expectations (direct reports, co-workers, partners/suppliers, supervisors, senior leaders) However, trust has become more elusive as organizations downsize and embrace new organizational practices. If you believe that trust the foundation for successful organizations and teams, then you should attend this event.

The answer to this dilemma is not a return to corporate paternalism. Instead, we must build organizations capable of sustaining appropriate levels of trust in the face of forces that produce suspicion. This requires a tough-minded approach in all aspects of organization and management, particularly in the area of human resources.
