Dr. Simons\u2019 team created an assessment that measured behavioral integrity on a five-point scale. Their analysis found that a 1\/8 point gain on this scale generated a profit gain of 2.5% of annual revenues . . . which translated into $250K for each hotel! This study made an important link \u2013 one that had not been demonstrated before: manager behavior, specifically keeping promises and demonstrating company values, generates hard dollar profits. (Simons\u2019 work continues at The Integrity Dividend with a book, programs, blog, and more.)<\/p>\n
Whenever the trust of workplace leaders in the USA dips, employees consequently plan to look for a new job, citing low trust of their workplace, senior leaders, direct bosses, or even co-workers as a primary driver. <\/p>\n
Two research studies have noted this \u201cage of mistrust.\u201d According to Deloitte\u2019s 2010 Ethics & Workplace Survey, one-third of employed Americans planned to look for a new job when the economy stabilized. Of this group, 48 percent say that a lack of honest communication from company leaders was their primary reason for that decision. This survey also reports that 65 percent of Fortune 1000 executives who were concerned with the upcoming \u201ctalent drain\u201d believed trust is a factor in this voluntary turnover.<\/p>\n
Maritz Research\u2019s workplace study echoes the Deloitte findings. According to the Maritz poll, only 11 percent of American employees strongly agree that their managers show consistency between their words and their actions. Only 7 percent of employees strongly agree that they trust senior leaders to look out for their best interest (!) and only 7 percent believe their co-workers will do so.<\/p>\n
The Maritz poll also found that about 20% of respondents do not believe that their company\u2019s leader is completely honest and ethical; fully 25% disagree that they trust management to make the right decisions in times of uncertainty. Of those employees who do not trust company management, only 3% look forward to coming to work every day!<\/p>\n
Sharon Allen, Deloitte\u2019s chairman of the board, notes that, by focusing on talent management and retention strategies, \u201cexecutives may be able to reduce attrition.\u201d She goes on to state, \u201cEstablishing and enforcing a values-based culture will ultimately help cultivate employee trust.\u201d<\/p>\n
What is the degree of trust in your workplace? What are you willing to do to measure that level of trust and improve in the months to come?<\/p>\n
