Trust in the team is very important. They help establish a healthy environment and enjoy the work process. To build such a relationship, you need to be able to communicate with people, listen carefully and respect them.
Instructions
Step 1
There can be no trust between people if there is no open communication between them. Learn to listen carefully to what your colleagues tell you. Your interest in their speech should be genuine. Clarify if something is not clear to you, do not let them think that you do not take their words seriously. If you are discussing any point related to your work, let your interlocutor express their point of view and state their vision of solving the problems that arise. The challenge here is to make all the interlocutors feel equal and not feel pressure from anyone else. They need to know that they are being listened to and trusted. Such communication will create a sense of involvement in the same business among colleagues at work.
Step 2
Try never to make single-handed decisions if many people are involved in the process of making them. Involve the team in the discussion of cases whenever necessary. Let your colleagues know that you are ready to trust their opinion, delegate them the right to make decisions if they are competent enough.
Step 3
Try not to single out any of your colleagues, your attitude towards everyone should be the same. Do not get involved in gossip, especially when discussing with your colleagues, it can be detrimental to team relationships. Remember that the people you are discussing may find out about this conversation, in this case there can be no trust. Try to maintain a friendly relationship with everyone you work with.
Step 4
Be honest, learn to keep the promises you make to your colleagues. If you respond positively to their requests for help, never let them down. Do not disclose information received from colleagues to anyone if it is confidential.
Step 5
Know how to admit your mistakes and never shift the blame onto others. Remember, a workflow is never perfect. Everyone makes mistakes sooner or later. Attempts to avoid responsibility even for minor blunders and thus preserve your reputation will significantly undermine the trust in you from others. Do not hide your failures, do everything to prevent them in the future.
Step 6
If you lead a team, the trust between you and your employees will directly affect work efficiency. Try to help your colleagues solve difficult issues if they are faced with difficulties that cannot be dealt with for a long time. People around you will know about your attitude to such things, they will trust you more. If you do not understand certain things, do not be afraid to admit it. The credibility of your employees will be significantly higher if you say that you do not know how to proceed and suggest that they look for a way out. Confidence will be severely undermined if you hide your ignorance and offer erroneous solutions.
