I came across an article that explores how mistrust impacts workplace dynamics, particularly around accommodations. It argues that many leaders operate with skepticism, seeing accommodations as potential loopholes rather than legitimate needs. This approach not only harms productivity but also erodes trust and leads to attrition.
The piece challenges leaders to move from managing with skepticism to managing with trust—not by lowering standards, but by redefining what fairness and flexibility can look like in modern teams.
Curious to hear the community’s perspective: how can organizations foster trust while maintaining fairness and accountability?
