Seven C’s of Trust

When you walk across the street, when you’re speeding down the highway at 65 miles an hour, why do you trust these perfect strangers driving in front of you and beside you with your life more than you trust people on your team with your career or the entire business?

This morning I was walking my dog around Grays Bay on Lake Minnetonka, and on one side of 101 was a very narrow space for he and I to make our way without getting hit by on coming traffic. As we walked I continually focused on the drivers and how much attention or lack of attention they were giving to their driving. And I began to wonder how often we trust our lives to perfect strangers and at times perhaps even more often have a hard time trusting those we know very well.

Are you struggling with trusting others?
