Flawed Theories About Trust- Roy Lewicki
I hold an important title and a powerful position in this company, so you should trust me
I have years of experience in this area, so you should trust me
I am considered an expert in this field, so you should trust me
It’s up to the other person to build their trust in me-it’s your job to learn to trust me
I can win the trust of others simply by calling for it
Trust me, I’m from ….(HR, Compliance, IT, etc.)
Concept of Trust
“Trust is like the air we breathe.
When it’s present, nobody really notices.
But when it’s absent everybody notices.”
-Warren Buffet

The Law of Crucial Conversation
Anytime you find yourself stuck, there are crucial
conversations keeping you there.
Identify the crucial conversations that you’re not
holding or not holding well, figure out where you’re
going wrong, fix it and get better outcomes.
What makes a conversation crucial?
Every Crucial Conversation Contains Three Elements
Getting Stuck
We’re all stuck or not achieving what we want in a variety of areas, ranging from awkward or failing relationships to dysfunctional teams to cost, quality or safety problems at work.
At your tables:Discuss how you got your way as a child.
Report out to group.
The Crucial Conversations Model
Silence vs. Violence
We often hold things inside by going silent until we can’t take it any longer – then we drop a bomb.
We move from silence to violence
Backtracking
Content: What you are talking about
Process: How you’re treating each other as you navigate through the conversation.
The process we’ll focus on is how people affect the flow of information – are we in silence, violence, or healthy dialogue
The more people share their information, the larger the POOL of shared meaning. The bigger the pool the more action takes place.
Identifying Where You’re Stuck
Individually:Write down as many places, situations, or
circumstances where you currently feel stuck.
What bad results do you want to fix? What good results are you currently not able to achieve? What problems are you always trying to fix? What do people gripe about?
Page 10 in the Toolkit
Unbundle with CPR
Content: a single instance of a problem. If either the action itself or
the immediate consequences is the issue, you’ve got a content
problem.
Pattern: a recurring problem – a pattern of behavior over time.
Relationship: How the problem is affecting your working relationship
- e.g. trust is suffering
Example: An employee is late to work – you discuss content. An
employee is late to work for the next five days – you discuss pattern.
You start to feel you can’t trust this employee to follow through on
commitments – you discuss relationship.
My Real Conversation
Poor Effort Awful Meetings Diversity issues Authority issues High turnover Poor Team work Mistrust
Persistently poor quality Over or Under managing Stalled change effort Lack of innovation Safety problems Failure to deliver Chronic overtime
Identify an area in which you would like to work on. With a partner’s help, step out of content & examine the process.
Start with Heart
The Problem The first thing that degrades
during a crucial conversation is not our behavior (that comes second), but our motive.
The core of Trust is Intento What’s your agenda,
motive
The Solution Learn how to stay focused
on what you really want, and get better results.
Motive = Genuine Caring Agenda = Mutual Benefit Behavior = Best Interest
of Others
Start with the Heart
If you don’t first change your heart, any efforts to change your actions are likely to be insincere, shallow and doomed to failure!
Video: Let’s take a look at a situation, in which motives degrade, and the people become blind to their role in the problem. Raise your hand as you notice motives changing.
When Conversations Start to Fail
1. Ask, “What do I really want – For myself? For others? For the relationship?
2. Ask, “What am I acting like I want?”
3. Ask, “How would I behave if I really did?”
Then behave as if you really do.
Work on Me First
Admit your role – Seldom do we look at ourselves
Ask yourself - Why would a reasonable, rational and decent person do what they are doing?
o Self justifying stories
Use two toolsFocus on what you really wantRefuse the Sucker’s Choice
Focus on What you REALLY Want
Unhealthy Goals Be Right Look good/save face Keep the peace Win Punish/blame Avoid Conflict Control the situation Convince someone
Goals of Dialogue Learn Find the truth Produce results Strengthen
relationships Maintain relationships
Sucker’s Choice
Either/or choices… why do we create false dilemmas?
Fight or flight mode. At the time our choices seem logical.
Provides us with an excuse. “Of course I did something to attack his credibility because…”
Refuse the Sucker’s Choice
Changing needless OR statements:o Either we can maintain respect and support the
physician, OR we can speak up, appear to be questioning the physician and face consequences.
To AND options:o I wonder how I can speak up, ensure safety AND
still be viewed as respectful.
Exercise: Refer back to your Real Conversation and come up with a “Sucker’s Choice”.
Next: With your learning partnerClarify what you want to achieveClarify what you want to avoidCombine the two into an “and” question by asking
“I wonder how I can achieve _______________ and avoid _______________?”
How to Get to AND Thinking
Start with Heart Summary
Focus on what you really wanto What are you acting like you want?o Your intentions, motive
Review healthy vs. unhealthy goals
Refuse the Sucker’s Choiceo Use the power of “AND” thinking
Learn to LOOK
The Problem
When a conversation turns crucial we either miss or misinterpret the early warning signs. We get caught up in the content.
The Solution
The sooner we notice we’re not in dialogue, the quicker we can get back to dialogue and lower the cost.
Learn to Look
Sometimes we know we’re about to step into a crucial conversation-we’re prepared
Sometimes we’re caught by surprise and end up in silence or violence
Learn to Look for…
Early warning signs (feelings)
Physical signs of silence and violence
Your own reactions under stress
Identifying Types of Silence and Violence
SILENCE Masking Avoiding Withdrawing
VIOLENCE Controlling Labeling Attacking
Your “Style Under Stress”
Individually: Complete the worksheet to determine your
preferred Style Under Stress

Learn to Look for Your Own Style Under Stress
By knowing we’re able to: Put up a “caution sign” Keep closer tabs on our own reactions Guard against our worst tendencies Either avoid problems altogether or catch them
early
It’s Not Easy
On your worst day, you miss the fact that the conditions of dialogue are failing and go straight to silence or violence.
On a good day, you recognize that people are going to silence and violence, but don’t know what to do about it.
On your best day, you see more than silence and violence – you see what is causing it, and have a crucial conversation.
