TRUST
TRUST is the key ingredient in all healthy relationships.
And that's true of your relationship with the University.
But how to build trust is another matter. In fact,
even though you know it when you feel it, trust is not all
that easy to describe.
The Great Place to Work® Model© Identifies credibility, respect and fairness as necessary components in building trust. Our interpretation of these components is:
Respect must be present in every interaction. Each person
must be recognized as an individual. You deserve to be supported
when meeting family needs. And when it comes to building your
career, you're worthy of R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
Credibility means open communication across all levels. It
means that the decisions of leaders match the mission of the
organization. And the rationale for decisions is understandable
for each person in the organization.
Freedom from discrimination must be a given. Additionally,
every individual must have the opportunity to be heard, including
access to fair
dispute resolution.
