Trust: the new currency or is it?

Who do you really trust?

Yourself, your company, your bank..........seems to me that 'trust' is fast becoming the new 'currency' for people who want to have genuine relationships, be it with themselves, their family, their institutions.

Sadly, trust is being eroded as well. I heard a story today of a lady 'blindsided' by her sudden redundancy & the impact that has had on her.

I am disillusioned by the revelations of the HSBC Bank in the UK and its potential dodgy dealings with Iranian oil sales on the back of the behaviours by greedy Wall St executives. And so it goes on across the world

Just how valuable is your reputation? How much do people trust you? How well do you trust yourself to act with integrity?

If you want to get an idea of the incredible value of trust Stephen R. Covey (Jnr) has just released a great new book called Smart Trust...I am just starting it & the first few chapters really resonate with me so far.

In a reflective mood.
