“Constellation Learning is onto something special
here. Too many facilitation courses are based on teaching
participants some “ideal” model. Constellation
Learning’s approach – finding the authentic
or genuine in you and facilitating within your abilities
and perspectives – is the most natural, logical
and common-sense method that I have ever come across.”
— Tony Marzotto, Facilitator for the Ministry
of Transportation, Toronto

The Trust Factor: Building Successful
Teams
Create Cohesive Teams
Trust is Mandatory
High performing teams are built on a solid foundation of trust.
Without it, teams hang out in a “watch and wait”
mode. The most effective leaders demonstrate
a clear understanding of the attributes that undermine or
uphold the foundation of trust.
How to Uphold the Trust Factor
You’ll discover the “A’s” that uphold:
awareness, acknowledgement, and adjustment. You’ll learn
a 3 step process for building trust-based teams that
always result in bigger bottom-lines for the long-term.
“A’s” all
around
And you’ll uncover the “A’s” that
undermine the foundation of your teams - and
yourself: arrogance, anger, and apathy. Finally, the most
important “A” of all in the recipe for effective
leadership: authenticity, the birth place of trust.
