Trust is not what you think it is. It is not absolute or universal. Trust is relative. The same behavior that would cause one person to trust you could cause another person to distrust you. The level of trust someone has in you is the product of their trustfulness (their willingness to trust other people) and your trustworthiness. There is almost (I said ALMOST) nothing you can do about the former, and everything you can do about the latter. Because of that, you must evaluate your own trustworthiness one relationship at a time, separately. Odds are, though, that the same behaviors that are holding you back from being more trusted in one relationship are holding you back from being more trusted in other relationships. Welcome to The Trust Show. I’m your host, Yoram Solomon, a top 10 trust expert and researcher, the author of the book of trust, and the creator of the Trust Habits® workshop that helps people and organizations form new habits that change old behaviors, build trust, and transform organizations. In this educational podcast, I will challenge you to think differently about trust, through the 8 laws of trust and the 6 components of trustworthiness. I will share my own stories, experiences of others, trust research, and sometimes, reflect on a news item. And through those, I will show you how to build trust, be trusted, and know who to trust. Because the answer to this question will have the biggest impact on your personal and professional, success or failure: can you be trusted?

When I delivered a keynote about building trust in remote and hybrid work scenarios, I said, “if you can’t trust your employees to work from home, unsupervised, you have the wrong employees.” Someone then asked me, “how do you hire trustworthy employees?”
When we interview employees, we typically focus on their technical and professional capabilities. Those fall into the “competence” component of trustworthiness. But it’s not enough. Sometimes, we add some of the “soft skills,” but we are often not trained enough to assess those.
Rarely, if ever, do we do anything to answer the question: is this a trustworthy employee? This episode will address: (1) Before starting the interview process, (2) Prework, addressing the “who you are?” (3) First impression, (4) The interview itself, and (5) The relativity of trust—why it’s important to have a team interview.
