Overview
To some Extent, Transparency
Being open and honest is one way to develop trust. Employees are more likely to understand their roles and how they may each contribute to the success of the firm if you are more transparent about the organization’s objectives and difficulties. Higher levels of employee engagement are a result of that sense of worth and purpose.
Promote Innovation and Risk-Taking
Establishing and retaining your company’s competitive edge depends on experimentation. Great leaders are aware of this and promote innovation and risk-taking inside their company.
Value integrity and ethics
Giles argues in the Harvard Business Review that “a leader with high ethical standards demonstrates a commitment to fairness, creating trust that both they and their staff will obey the rules of the game.” Similar to how leaders prevent blind-siding individuals and guarantee that everyone is on the same page when they explain their expectations clearly.
