Whether you are buying a used car and hoping not to get a lemon or assuring employees you have their interests at heart during the chaos of a merger, knowing who to trust, and how to build trust, is key.

Grover Wray, chief human resource officer at DigitalGlobe, shares one firm’s efforts to win the trust of its employees during a stressful merger.

The Trust Project is a unique body of knowledge, connecting scholars and executives from diverse backgrounds to share ideas, research, and actionable insights in a series of videos for research and management.
