Description
Recent Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD) reports have found that
Trust – or lack of it – is going to be one of the biggest leadership issues in the coming years. It is at the very root of any relationship we have. Trust may not be visible but it holds the relationship sturdy, strong and upright.
Trust is becoming increasingly complex and yet because of trust, people will take the risk to change, to work together, to dig deeper, and to go further. On one hand we need to understand why we do not trust easily and on the other hand, we need to ask ourselves if we are trustworthy.

Description
According to Dr. Kotter, a pioneer in the field of organizational change, successful largescale
change requires engaging not just the minds of colleagues but, more importantly, their hearts.
It is about moving from fear, frustration and judgment towards courage, curiosity and excitement. The real challenge of change is rooted in neurobiology – the human brain wires itself to respond in a particular way. The patterns of thoughts, feelings and actions are already formed based on previous experience, so whenever we associate a particular concept or a feeling with another we reinforce a connection.
