Phil Jackson once said, "Good teams become great ones when the members trust each other enough to surrender the 'me' for the 'we.'" No team can achieve at a higher level without trust in one another, no matter how many great individual contributors they may have. (Though having Michael Jordan on your team does help.)
Today, with so many more people working on a hybrid or virtual team, a focus on building and maintaining trust is more important than ever. And fortunately, business leaders are taking note. According to a Deloitte poll, 61.3% of C-suite executives say their organization will work to improve trust levels with key stakeholders in the next year.
