8 Signs To Recognize Someone With Good Character
Unproductive teams don’t lack skills, they lack trust;
It creeps into every interaction & every decision:
⛔ It’s the fact that no-one wants to admit.
But,
According to Harvard Business Review:
💡Companies with high-trust cultures report 74% less stress and 50% higher productivity than those with low-trust environments.
The only way to fix this is through noticeable, consistent acts of good character from every member of the team.
