Trust Counterfeits


Tip #1 - Trust Counterfeits

Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be sharing a few Trust Tips from Stephen M.R. Covey, based on his our popular leadership process pulled from his best-selling book, TheSpeed of Trust.   

In our program titled, Leading at the Speed of Trust, leaders begin the process by taking a 360-degree assessment where they gather feedback from their boss, peers and direct reports around The 4 Cores of Trust and The 13 Behaviors of High Trust Leader, mentioned in the book.  This feedback is able to come from up to 30 respondents in a confidential format. 

In the 2-day program, leaders not only learn about these behaviors, they learn about their counterfeits.  When leaders exhibit these counterfeit behaviors regularly, they create Trust Taxes for their team which ultimately slow down performance and increase costs towards the bottom line. 

Today’s Trust Tip is acknowledging the Counterfeit Behaviors.  The most damaging risk to trust isn’t usually the opposite behavior (like lying, poor performance, disrespecting others, etc).  Those are easily identified and stopped.  The biggest problem is often trust counterfeits. 

Counterfeits are behaviors that appear on the surface to be high-trust but that actually damage relationships.  Be careful not to engage in counterfeits.

Here are some examples:
