Trust is very complex word in the physical workplace, but how can a trust be built in a “Virtual Workplace” and working with someone you haven’t met personally. Knowing that any term can’t function well if both parties don’t trust one another.
Here are some tips on how to build your trust in your virtual workplace.
- Leverage your SWIFT TRUST
- Swift Trust is similar to what we call “Honey Moon Period” of a relationship, usually when groups first form, people are willing to give others the benefit of the doubt and feels that “we’re on a same boat.” This ensure that the team has clear goals that everyone understands.
- Proactively build INTERPERSONAL TRUST
- In this, managers can help encourage such personal connections with their people by talking about what’s been happening in their lives, both professionally and personally.
- Communicate with PREDICTABILITY
- The key to good communications is not quantity but quality. In some studies found that teams lacking in trust tended to have unpredictable communication patterns, often with just one or two members accounting for the bulk of the communications.
- Share and rotate POWER
- Monitor and mentor, not command and control. In some studies, centralized power structure is less effective than mutually trust power structure. It’s because people are more likely to be active in work if both parties are coordinating and doing their jobs well with trust.
