Trust
Whether others rely on your commitments and follow-through.
Trust is whether people count on you to do what you said, and whether they believe what you tell them without checking elsewhere.
Strong trust is often the reason someone gets handed every critical deadline. Weak trust shows up as being double-checked, second-guessed or not taken seriously.
How people describe it
People rarely search for the signal by name. They describe what it feels like when it is weak:
- “why don’t people take me seriously”
- “people double-check my work”
- “how to build trust at work”
