Talking-Straight The # 1 Behaviour Of High-Trust Leaders
IN TODAY’S WORLD most people in their personal and professional dimensions can think of several situations everyday where they have felt like others were beating around the bush and indulging in double-talking, pussy-footing, soft-pedalling, diplomacy (the words they use to cover-up their blatant lies, half-truths, falsehoods, glib-talk and spin-doctoring), obfuscating tergiversation and strange circumlocution about facts, truths, viewpoints, intentions, ideas, opinions or agendas. While distorting facts and omitting information may sound legally/technically correct, this practice will lead to wrong impressions, and will never inspire trust.
