Trust is at the root of all positive relationships. This accessible
and empowering book teaches how to form an inner circle of trusted
confidants in your workplace and at home that will allow you to
live a more peaceful and more effective life, reduce stress, and
better deal with negative emotions. Building trust is crucial for
effective leadership, and trusting others is a necessary part of
working with others. But knowing whom to trust-and whom not to
trust-eludes many people. A surprising number of people report that
being betrayed by someone in their "inner circle" either at work or
in their personal lives is one of the most devastating things they
have endured. Lack of trust is also expensive in that it costs
companies money to surveil employees; and in our personal lives, if
we live with people we cannot trust, we expend needless amounts of
energy protecting ourselves from these untrustworthy people. How do
we increase trust, bounce back from betrayal, and form alliances
and positive relationships with those who ARE trustworthy? This
book provides a unique examination of trust and its
often-overlooked importance to our work and personal lives. It
identifies the characteristics of a trusting relationship,
considers the decision-making process that people should make
before granting individuals admission to their own "inner circle,"
and teaches how to tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" in our
work environments and life in general. This revised and updated
edition contains new information on the negative mental and
physical aspects of telling lies; how to better manage our
emotions, which allows us to become "better guys" ourselves;
strategies for building more trusting relationships in our
families; and how trust works-and doesn't work-online in the
Internet age. It also includes a useful "Family Board Meeting" tool
for having family meetings in a way that encourages honest and open
dialogue between family members regardless of age or family
structure. Presents a system for assessing "the good guys and the
bad guys"-in other words, the trustworthy and untrustworthy people
that surround all of us in every arena of life Provides tools for
assessing our own trustworthiness as well as for evaluating our own
willingness to trust another Gives readers effective methods for
dealing with forgiveness, coping, and reconciliation; managing
"conditional" trust relationships; and for becoming more
trustworthy to themselves Suggests a practical "Honesty Challenge"
that dares readers to be more truthful-and as a result, more
successful
