If so, your company could be in the fortunate position of having what\u2019s been termed as a \u2018high trust\u2019 culture. Put most simply, it\u2019s one where the prevailing organizational culture is built on and consistently demonstrates trusting, and trust-enhancing, behaviours \u2013 and there\u2019s plenty of evidence showing that these types of organizations are the ones with the advantages when it comes to both employee and financial wellbeing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the benefits associated with high trust cultures? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trust has been shown to play a hugely important role in employee engagement, effectively laying the foundations for it to happen. The UK voluntary engagement movement <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Engage for Success (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/engageforsuccess.org\/what-is-employee-engagement\" target=\"_blank\">Engage for Success<\/a> refers to engaged organizations as having \u201cstrong and authentic values, with clear evidence of trust and fairness based on mutual respect, where two-way promises and commitments \u2013 between employers and employees \u2013 are understood and fulfilled\u201d.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Stanford psychologist Emma Seppala points to a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"large body of research (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/2015\/05\/why-compassion-is-a-better-managerial-tactic-than-toughness#:~:targetText=Stanford%20University%20neurosurgeon%20Dr.,and%20accidentally%20pierces%20a%20vein.\" target=\"_blank\">large body of research<\/a> showing a high trust culture nurtures collaboration and creativity, encouraging employees to innovate. Employee retention\u2019s been shown to be better in high trust companies: the <a href=\"http:\/\/learn.greatplacetowork.com\/rs\/520-AOO-982\/images\/GPTW-Fortune-100Best-Report-2016.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"2016 Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For\u00ae (opens in a new tab)\">2016 Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For\u00ae<\/a> report showed an average voluntary turnover rate of just 10% of employees who worked in a high trust work environment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Great Place to Work\u00ae\u2019s <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"research into the links (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/media.greatplacetowork.com\/pdfs\/Business+Case+for+a+High-Trust+Culture_081816.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">research into the links<\/a> between business success and high trust cultures reveals several significant outcomes. They include turnover rates that are around 50% less than industry competitors and stock market returns around two to three times higher than average.  High trust cultures are connected to greater levels of customer satisfaction too. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.strategy-business.com\/article\/00054?gko=cc8b8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"As this analysis (opens in a new tab)\">As this analysis<\/a> from Michael D\u2019Antonio and John Gerzema explains, they\u2019re also linked to increased spending habits (known as \u201cthe spend shift\u201d) with consumers opting to spend their money with companies known for genuinely promoting values such as transparency, fairness, kindness and generosity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The expectation of working in high trust cultures is growing; increasing numbers of millennials are entering the workplace and they want to work for companies that are collaborative and transparent.  As this <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"2018 millennial survey report (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/content\/dam\/Deloitte\/global\/Documents\/About-Deloitte\/gx-2018-millennial-survey-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">2018 millennial survey report<\/a> from Deloitte highlights, there\u2019s a growing desire for increasingly meaningful relationships with individuals in the workplace and organizations as a whole. There\u2019s frustration and disappointment when this can\u2019t be achieved. Any organization that\u2019s falling short would be wise to think about any steps it can take to improve it because indications are this is going to be a workplace issue that\u2019s going to take on ever-increasing levels of significance.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you considered whether your organization has a high trust culture? Perhaps it\u2019s well on the way to developing one but there\u2019s still more to do.  Here are four signs that might help you decide: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Your employees are treated with respect <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Are employees treated like grown-ups, like the professionals that they are? That might sound like a strange thing to ask but sometimes the way companies deal with employees can still seem more indicative of a parent\/child relationship.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, do employees need to seek permissions or  authorizations  regularly? Or are they empowered to make decisions on their own when it\u2019s practical to do so? Being given flexibility and autonomy over how they work is an indication that they\u2019re trusted to deliver what\u2019s needed. What about communication? Its important employees are regularly communicated with, and their views taken into account, so they don\u2019t feel they\u2019re being left out. Opinions need to be sought and feedback listened to. These are the types of actions that offer important signals to employees that their contributions are valued and opinions respected.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The workplace is perceived as fundamentally fair  <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sense of fairness develops when employees feel they\u2019re operating on a level playing field in all aspects of the business such as equal pay, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"recognition (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.workstars.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">recognition<\/a> and opportunities for advancement.  Indicators of how fundamentally fair a workplace is can be seen all over an organization. The way leaders interact with subordinates for instance: a \u2018do as we say and not as we do\u2019 culture, where leadership is not leading by example, is jarring and can instantly undermine trust levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The way policies and procedures are set up and applied is another sign. Do they provide the foundations for a fair workplace, and are they applied in the right way to make sure that\u2019s the day to day reality? Is there consistency in the way people are treated? If concerns arise, are they taken seriously? It is vital employees know they can raise any issues they have and that they will be properly addressed.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Employees are proud of working for your company <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Have you seen any indications that your employees feel proud of where they work? There are so many places to look and listen for the signs: social media posts, recognition feedback, engagement surveys, day to day conversations\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A sense of being proud to be part of an organization comes from valuing what the organization stands for, and it comes from feeling valued. That stems from knowing efforts are recognised and appreciated. It occurs when employees feel the company takes a genuine interest in the \u2018whole person\u2019 and wants to help them accomplish their goals. Employees that feel proud to be part of an organization aren\u2019t made to feel vulnerable by it. An employee cannot prize their organization if they don\u2019t feel their company prizes them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">There\u2019s a strong sense of camaraderie <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is there a sense of team and collaboration in your organization? Are individual supportive relationships formed, but never to the detriment of others?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.workstars.com\/recognition-and-engagement-blog\/2019\/07\/31\/what-is-the-employee-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"What is the employee experience? (opens in a new tab)\">What is the employee experience?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In high trust companies, employees are encouraged to work together to find solutions. People are happy to share knowledge, rather than hold it back to try to gain power or a sense of one-upmanship over a colleague. There\u2019s a real team mindset and a strong vibe that people always look out for each other: both in times of personal need and also when working together to make sure everyone gets the best outcomes for the company. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If employees were describing what it\u2019s like to work for your company, do you think the word trust would come up?
