The Pathway to The Trust Paradigm – our new book (Oct. 2022)

London Live news interview

Geoff Hudson-Searle was interviewed by Helena Wadia from London Live on their news at 6pm show recently, discussing trust and The Trust Paradigm Book. Trust in our culture at large, in our institutions and in our companies is significantly lower than a generation ago. In any normality trust is paramount, but given current world events, never has there been more need for increased trust. A survey carried out by Datapad for International Business and Executive Management Group Limited, shows that few of us trust our leaders. Of those who responded to the question; “Do you trust and respect your CEO”, 30% responded, “not at all” and another 39% responded, “a little” The Trust Paradigm, in an attempt to change how leaders communicate, which he argues is at the heart of the current challenge with trust and respect. The survey asked employees the same question on ‘trust and respect’ in relation to their #executiveleadership, Heads of Department and their immediate line managers. The closer the manager’s role was to the respondent, the more likely it was for the employee to answer positively. Immediate managers were trusted “a lot” by 48% of those who responded and “a little” by 36%. 16% of immediate managers are not trusted at all. The Trust Paradigm draws on the hard-won truths of two authors, Geoff Hudson-Searle and Mark Herbert, and draws on their deep personal lessons from life and business practice, and their efforts to distill those lessons into principles that lead towards a more purposeful life.
