Description

By identifying the key connections between trust, learning and high performance, this work attempts to show how to restore trust in contemporary public organizations. David Carnevale explains that trust and distrust are not destiny - they arise from the choices organizations make about how they will be designed and managed. He develops a model of trust different to management theories of the past and he reveals the actions needed to build higher levels of trust in the workplace.
