Trust is a critical component in building strong customer relationships, whether the customer is external, paying for a product or service, or internal within an organisation. Host Ingrid Maynard insists that in professional relationships, trust is shaped by three main factors: reliability, credibility, and intimacy.

Reliability involves being dependable and consistent in both actions and demeanour. Credibility is about demonstrating expertise and a proven track record. Intimacy refers to handling sensitive, privileged information with care and discretion. On the flip side, self-orientation can damage trust, whether it’s through excessive focus on oneself or insecurity.

By staying self-aware, consistently reliable, and customer-focused, professionals can foster trust even in uncertain times, leading to stronger relationships and better outcomes.
