What's going to get us out of the economic ditch - working harder, working smarter and increasing productivity...? Is there something else that's needed in the mix? Ask us about how The Speed of Trust might assist you to achieve your goals in these changing times.

Never before has trust been so necessary - with Ministers and agencies, between public and private sectors, within agencies and within teams.  One of the key State Services Development Goals is all about trust: ‘Strengthening trust in the State Services and reinforcing the spirit of service.'

Because we know ‘trust' is such a crucial issue for New Zealand's future, Thought Partners has had three of our consultants trained in the Stephen Covey Trust tools.  We know that high trust improves speed and success and reduces costs.

Low trust slows progress and increases costs.  Covey's research identified 4 cores of credibility which are:  integrity, intention, capability and results.

We've mapped the Covey competencies onto the Lominger framework and can walk and talk you through ways to improve your engagement scores and build capability and credibility.

Ask us for an obligation-free consultation or look at our Trust Workshop Service Profile for more information.
