Building Trust in the Workplace
Presenter: Jimmy Yokeley, Logistics Advantage, LLC – an affiliate of TransImpact NC
Union Station – Room 402
Let’s address trust issues by exploring expectations, boundaries, and effective workplace communication. It is important to build trust in the workplace because trust is at the very core of all functional relationships. A lack of confidence in your co-workers strains office relationships—and results in lost efficiency and poor work. Building trust will help us enjoy work more, combat turnover, and make CFCC a happier workplace for all.
Learn to focus on our own competencies, teamwork, a “one CFCC” environment, and trusting our office teams and leadership.
