The six components of the model--unity, strategic competence, predictability and reliability, integrity and openness, collaborative intent, and psychological safety--interact to produce a work environment that enables team members to gain a high degree of collaborative success.

Recommendation As a corporate trainer A corporate trainer is a specialized skill development position in a corporation where the goal is to help improve the "soft skills" or "people skills" of the workers in the corporation. I understand the difficulties associated with developing team trust and fostering a collaborative work environment. I recommend that if you are responsible for the development and growth of teams that lack elements essential for high performance, the TrustTalk product is a low-cost way of addressing trust.
