5、 no practical construct of Trust that allows us to design and implement organizational interventions to significantly increase trust levels between people. We all think we know what Trust is from our own experience, but we dont know much about how to improve it. Why? I believe it is because we have
6、been taught to look at Trust as if it were a single entity.“ The Three Constructs of Trust Tway defines trust as “the state of readiness for unguarded interaction with someone or something“. He developed a model of trust that includes three components. He calls trust a construct because it is “const
7、ructed“ of these three components: the capacity for trusting, the perception of competence, and the perception of intentions.

The truthfulness and transparency of the communication with staff is also a critical factor. The presence of a str
14、ong, unifying mission and vision can also promote a trusting environment. Providing information about the rationale, background, and thought processes behind decisions is also an important aspect of maintaining trust. Another is organizational success; people are more apt to trust their competence,
