I’m really intrigued by ways we create trust among leadership in our team especially in remote environments. What has worked for me is delivering on things I’ve said I’d do (as best I can) and being an active participant in meetings. What are some ways you build trust?

Definitely following through, that's a huge one, especially in a remote first environment. Another big one is being communicative and engaged on Teams/Slack. It's very easy to phone it in and not participate in conversations, but I think it's a big sign of leadership to stay present and active.

Definitely, presence being felt in remote space is important

Do what you say and say what you do.

Be genuine, don't take airtime just to take airtime if you contribute to a conversation do so because you have something to add.

Different cultures value trust in different ways; some places being transparent others just deliver.

Figure out the leaders and their personality styles and partner with the ones you are compatible with; go together to go far go alone to go fast.

I really like especially what you said about finding leaders and their personality styles that are more compatible to yours and partner with them

I think those are great ways to build trust. I hate when a manager or leader can't follow through. I also think that having good communication is a good way to build trust with your team as well.

Yeah that’s always challenging when you can’t rely on them
