To be successful, any leader must be credible. But what does credibility even mean? It’s simple: credible leaders are believable and trustworthy. The annual Edelman Trust Barometer survey indicates that the ONLY institution trusted globally in our turbulent times is BUSINESS – especially small business. Credibility might seem an easy attribute to have, but, at least according to Edelman, it is in very short supply these days.
Tune in this week as Wayne offers seven qualities of credible people and wraps up with a bit of wisdom from the great Dan Sullivan. What works – or has failed to work – in your experience? Perhaps you have worked for bosses in the past that weren’t credible at all or somehow lost their credibility. Please share your experiences with us in the comments.
