Trust

As a generation of baby boomers nears retirement our country is facing a dilemma. By 2010 there may be a shortage of 4 to 6 million workers causing a dearth of effective leaders. Nearly every recent crisis-corporate bankruptcies political scandals moral failures in the church-can be traced to a leadership deficit. The common denominator? Broken trust. Author Les T. Csorba sees trust as the most indispensable force between leaders and followers. Here he offers observations gleaned from two decades of experience in government business church and family. Part meditation part how-to manual Trust examines characteristics of trusted leadership including The 7 Principles of the Trust. Finally the book features interactive elements such as The Leader Check: a guide to evaluating whether you are developing the trust necessary to motivate and richly lead followers.
