The Quickest Way An Employer Can Build Trust, with Wendy Patel, HR Solutions Atlanta
Wendy Patel: One of the quickest ways that a business owner can show trust is to admit their mistake, admit that they don’t have all the answers.
They, simply can say, Hey guys, I messed up yesterday when we did this project. I shouldn’t have done whatever it was. And let’s talk about that. So breaking down that wall by admitting they, that they don’t know the answer, they maybe didn’t handle a situation the way that they should have opens up for everybody else to say, yeah, okay, I don’t have to be perfect. I don’t have to live in fear of making a mistake.
So that, I think that’s number one, but doing it consistently. And these things that usually I recommend to my clients or something or things that are, they don’t cost any money, but they just have to be done consistently.
