Trust Busters -- Organizational Trust Is So Hard To Create, Yet So Critical To Success

It is Francis Fukuyama's contention, says Michael Finley, that economic issues and social issues are more intertwined than many believe; as such, capitalist society must be based on trust. In this e-Doc, Finley, who researches and writes about a host of topics relating to culture and change, examines Fukuyama's philosophy and point-of-view. Ultimately, Finley concludes that Fukuyama's concept of "networks of trust" holds much promise although they "are not for everyone." "If you can view workers not as short-term costs but as long-term assets," says Finley, "you may be ready for a trust network." This e-Doc is published by BrownHerron Publishing, with permission.
