Trust Your Team to Step Up, Not Let You Down
Build alignment, trust, and accountability with TrustBuilt’s proven approach to leadership development and team engagement.
Our trust-driven approach helps owners stop micromanaging and start building the kind of culture where people lead themselves.
Why Trust Matters More Than Ever
Micromanaging isn’t leadership—it’s a slow death for your business.
Today’s workforce is different. Employees are harder to keep, quicker to disengage, and less likely to stick around if they don’t feel trusted or valued. Meanwhile, owners are left frustrated—stuck in the weeds, redoing work, and wondering if their team will ever take real ownership.
The truth is, you can’t scale a business—or exit one—if you’re still carrying it on your back. You need a team you can rely on. That starts with trust.
Where We Start: The 8 Pillars of Trust
When teams don’t step up, it’s rarely about skills.
More often, it’s about trust: how you lead, how you communicate, and the culture you create.
Trust doesn’t happen just because you’ve hired good people.
It’s built—deliberately—through how you lead, how they respond, and the culture you create together.
We use the 8 Pillars of Trust as the foundation for building teams that step up and stay engaged. Without them, accountability falls apart. With them, your people lead themselves.
Clarity
People can’t deliver on what they don’t understand.
Compassion
Teams that feel cared for, care more about the work.
Character
Doing the right thing, even when it’s hard.
Commitment
A culture where people show up fully invested.
Connection
Strong relationships that hold teams together.
Contribution
Everyone knows their work matters.
Competency
Matching strengths with roles, and helping people grow.
Consistency
Trust is built in the little things, day after day.
How We Build Engaged Teams
We don’t do flavor-of-the-month training or motivational posters. We help you build a culture people want to own.
Our programs include:
Team Trust Assessments & Diagnostics
We start by getting real. These tools surface what’s working, what’s broken, and what your people need to re-engage.Leadership Coaching (1:1 or Group)
Whether it’s your senior team or emerging leaders, I help them build the self-awareness, communication, and ownership skills that trust requires.Strengths & Motivator Tools
Tools like DISC, the 8 Factors of Employee Engagement, and the 8 Pillars of Trust show how each person is wired, what drives them, and how to lead them more effectively—without guesswork.Accountability & Communication Workshops
I run hands-on sessions that help your team speak up, follow through, and support one another instead of stepping back.
I’ve Got Two Words for You: Owner Delegation and Team Performance
When was the last time you handed something off—and didn’t have to chase it down or fix it later?
If delegation feels like a gamble, you’re not alone. Most owners I work with either hold on too tight or let go too fast—then wonder why things don’t get done right.
Here’s the truth: owner delegation and team performance are directly linked.
When your team isn’t performing, it’s usually because they haven’t been set up to take real ownership. Not just tasks—but outcomes. And when delegation breaks down, you get stuck back in the weeds, doing work your team should be owning.
That’s not leadership. That’s a cycle of frustration.
I help you fix that—by building a leadership culture where:
Expectations are clear
Accountability is mutual
And your team has the tools (and mindset) to deliver
So you can delegate with confidence—and finally focus on the bigger picture.
