Description:
In one of his surveys, 16-time author Dr. Solomon found that trustworthiness was the most important quality for people in others more than 61% of the time, more than the next four qualities combined.

Target Audience:
Leaders at different levels
Description:
In one of his studies, the author of The Book of Trust, Dr. Yoram Solomon found that trustworthiness was the most important quality for people in others more than 61% of the time, more than the next four qualities combined. However, in one type of relationship, it wasn’t. Only 39% of LEADERS valued the trustworthiness of their employees the most, while 47.5% of them valued the willingness to work hard more than trustworthiness, and even intelligence. This creates a leadership crisis, preventing leaders from giving their employees autonomy, prevents their employees from being accountable, and significantly reducing productivity and creativity in the organization. In this keynote, you will learn the 8 laws of trust, the 6 components of the new trustworthiness model, and, if longer than 45 minutes, a 7-step action plan to implement it to become a more effective, one habit at a time. The keynote can be accompanied with The Book of Trust, The WORKBOOK of Trust, and the mini book Can I Trust You? 70+1 Habits that will make you a trustworthy LEADER.
Key Takeaways:
-
The importance of trust and its decline
-
The 7 laws of trust
-
The 6 components of trustworthiness, as they apply to leaders

Team members, team leaders, and human resource professionals
Description:
Effective, productive, and creative teamwork depends on the team's ability to engage in constructive disagreement. This is the ability to argue an issue, be passionate about it, raise your voice, but never let it become personal, emotional, irrational, and destructive. The team’s ability to hold this type of disagreement sets it apart every day, and especially during a crisis. This ability to hold a constructive disagreement requires the willingness to be vulnerable, provide true feedback, and be receptive to such feedback, all of which require the foundation of one thing: TRUST. In this keynote, you will learn the 7 laws of trust, the 6 components of the new trustworthiness model, and, if longer than 45 minutes, a 7-step action plan to implement it, one habit at a time.
