by Henny van Egmond | Trust. It may well be the most-used word when people discuss the New Way of Working. We have to organise ourselves based on trust. But what does that actually mean? And are we all talking about the same sort of trust? The Dutch magazine Management & Organisatie (Management & Organisation) recently devoted an entire themed edition to the topic. And rightly so. Trust is crucial in our society and within organisations. We see – certainly in certain areas – that it is decreasing rapidly and sometimes has even been replaced entirely by mistrust. Without trust, the New Way of Working cannot or can barely be introduced successfully. In fact, with trust organisations generally become more successful. But what do you have to do to increase the level of trust within an organisation?
