Trust

Humans are interdependent.
Trust among them is established through consistency, genuineness, truthfulness, good intent, and competence.
Trust is damaged by blame and excuses.
It is a basic element in taking risks which is at the heart of all learning.
Absence of trust is a great barrier to growth.
