The Benefits of a High‐Trust Environment High‐trust workplace cultures tend to correlate with high‐performance organizations. In a high‐trust team, people call each other out, without reservation, for the good of the business; no one feels put on the spot or made to look bad. If people can trust that everyone's motivations are honorable, not political, it allows them to focus on the problems and challenges of the business without getting defensive. People don't need to defend bad decisions in a high‐trust environment. They can acknowledge a failure and move on quickly.
Our choice is to yield to the mimetic forces making claims on our desire at every moment or to yield to the freedom of our single greatest desire: doing the one thing that we were made to do, all of the time, over and over and over again, until we’ve developed a desire thick enough to stake our life on. In the meantime, and probably at all times, we have something warm to sink our teeth into: wanting what we already have.
When Junnifa thinks back on the first years of her three children, one word comes to mind: joy. The pace of their family life was slow. Each baby had time and freedom to explore and develop, which led to joy, and a baby’s joy is contagious. We hope you too get to experience this joy.
