About this listen

In The Trust Edge, David Horsager reveals the foundation of genuine success - trust. Based on research but made practical for today’s leader, The Trust Edge shows that trust is quantifiable and brings dramatic results to businesses and leaders. In this book, Horsager teaches listeners how to build the 8 Pillars of Trust:

1. Clarity: People trust the clear and mistrust the ambiguous.

2. Compassion: People put faith in those who care beyond themselves.

3. Character: People notice those who do what is right over what is easy.

4. Competency: People have confidence in those who stay fresh, relevant, and capable.

5. Commitment: People believe in those who stand through adversity.

6. Connection: People want to follow, buy from, and be around friends.

7. Contribution: People immediately respond to results.

8. Consistency: People love to see the little things done consistently.

When leaders learn how to implement these pillars, they enjoy better relationships, reputations, retention, revenue, and results. Fascinating and timely, The Trust Edge unveils how trust has the ability to accelerate or destroy any business, organization, or relationship. The lower the trust, the more time everything takes, the more everything costs, and the lower the loyalty of everyone involved. Conversely, an environment of trust leads to greater innovation, morale, and productivity. The trusted leader is followed. From the trusted salesperson, people will buy. For the trusted brand, people will pay more, come back, and tell others. Trust, not money, is the currency of business and life!

Excellent content

Applicable now more than ever. Great conceptions, 15 pillars and connection to recognizable examples. Also appreciate the rural, farm upbringing of the author and nod to 4-H.

More than trust

The author went beyond a book on trust. It was more like listening to a life coach. Many good lessons. Good refresher.

Highest Impact Read this Year

This book is so impactful and filled with value that I have listened to it 3X - I will listen to it at least 3X more to try and retain as much of it as possible. David's knowledge of the subject and the simplicity in his explanations is what has brought the message in this book home to me. What a great read. I have suggested The Trust Edge to many of my friends and groups.
