Trust versus Foolishness

Hmm - just came across this article about trust, written by Chris Dillow, Investors Chronicle Economist and Writer. He says there is a thin line between trusting and being a fool. What do YOU think?

An Update from South Africa

Great start to my third trip to South Africa! Meeting with the CEO of Masiszane, Old Mutual's Foundation went extremely well. A quick change to their team building day next week, and they are flying me and Anne to Cape Town to present on how we might bring the truth about trust through their organisation and with their partners. Thank you, Charmaine.

Then had a great chat with MES, who will bring the truth about trust into their organisation next year, and will do some events in their community in Johannesburg for the International Day of Trust in 2011. Thanks guys!

A big thank you to Edith Venter, Events co-ordinator and well known socialite, who will work with us to make our inaugural gala dinner for the International Day of Trust South Africa a success! Very exciting to be planning for this important day and its lead up - put a note in your diary for the 3rd of May and watch this space!

Had another great day yesterday in Joburg. Met with the International Labour Organisation, a UN agency, and agreed we will look to how we might bring the truth about trust into one of their programs here in South Africa. YAY!

Wouldn't You Like a Marraige Built on Trust?

We all know that trust is the foundation on which all good marriages are built. But do we really know what trust is and how it works, how it breaks down and what we need to do to keep it?

The Truth about Trust Insight No 6:

We often don't realise that the very things that are going "wrong" in our lives, the things that we know are not at their best, are actually a direct result of trust breaking down.

In business, that could be low morale, people quitting, marketing not generating the returns we want, team conflict, poor performance, customer complaints.

In our homes that could be arguing, conflict, avoidance, abuse, frustration with our children or partner.

In our communities that could be any form of crime, increasing health issues, poor church attendance, lack of engagement in community affairs and events, problems in schools.

These are all examples of the SYMPTOMS that we deal with every day - but they are simply the symptoms. Dealing with these on their own is like putting a bandaid on a gaping and gushing wound and expecting it to heal.

What we need to do is deal with the ROOT CAUSE. And the root cause of all the frustrations and anger and disappointment in our business and personal lives is the BREAKDOWN OF TRUST.

Building and restoring trust is the only REAL solution to these issues.
