70% of consumers trust the
recommendations of their friends
~50% trust online recommendations
from complete strangers
Just 10% of consumers trust advertisers

Thousands of bees constantly explore
territory looking for blooming flowers
When a bee finds a nectar-rich flower, it
returns to the hive to do a “waggle dance”

“Just because nobody complains doesn’t
mean all your parachutes are perfect”
Or, as Benny Hill said…
Before customers interacted in social
media, failures were just not as visible

Your employees want to work for a trustable company!
At one US client we asked rank-and-file workers
for suggestions on being more trustable
We received ideas and suggestions from more
than 3000 employees!
Hundreds of ways they thought their company
should be more honest with its customers!

And one more thing:
Integrity is not elastic
No one ever has just “some” integrity
If you can earn and keep the Extreme Trust of
its customers, then
Workers will trust managers and each other
Vendors, stakeholders, partners and
investors will all trust your company more
