In a professional or family relationship, Trust can be built based on “Consistent behavior and action" over a period of time. It is not a one-time effort. Generally, based on our past consistent or repeated behavior and actions only, others form a perception, that is trust.
For example, in a professional environment,
If you are consistent in keeping up your commitment every time, others start trusting you as “committed”.Alternatively, if you commit something and everytime you show up with excuse, others form perception that you are "not dependable". This way only, you build the perception about you to others on commitment is concerned.
When colleagues are approaching you every time for a guidance or solution, if you are consistent in your approachability, then others are forming a trust on you as "easily approachable and solution provider". Alternatively, if there is inconsistency in your behaviour or action every time, you seem to be "vulnerable" and trust is not formed on the approachability.
The point is that in every aspect of your behavior and action, if there is consistency, accordingly trust is built on the particular behavior and action.
Hence, building trust is not a one-time effort, it is CONSISTENT EFFORT and if you would like to preserve the relationship with the team, customers, family members, show up consistency in your behavior and action on anything.
when you want to lead others, trust has to be earned by YOU and it is an effort!
