The secret to trust? Vulnerability.

People don’t trust perfection—they trust what’s real. As leaders, we often feel pressure to keep it all together. 

But the truth is, showing vulnerability shows strength. When you are open and honest, you create a space where others feel safe to do the same.

Lead with courage. Show your team that you are human, and they will respond with genuine trust.

Think about it:
How often has someone earned your trust simply by being real?

Next time you feel the urge to wear a mask, take a different approach. Show your true self—that’s where trust begins.
