We may be meeting about communication, discussing how to navigate change, or working to define a new strategy, and inevitably the conversation evolves to this critical point. Leaders want to know how to lead such that employees feel compelled to follow.

Half of all business leaders believe that when employees are working “out of sight,” they don’t work as hard. Yet this belief contradicts the facts. Similarly, Microsoft released a new study, where it found that 49% of managers of hybrid workers “struggle to trust their employees to do their best work.
