Description

Introduction Trust has been a topic of great importance to researchers from different scientific disciplines such as sociology (e.g., Coleman, 1990), psychology (e.g., Colquitt, Scott, & LePine 2007, 909-927), and economics (e.g., Williamson 1993, 77-140). It is recognized as an important factor influencing both organizational success in the marketplace and the wellbeing of the workforce (Connell, Ferres, & Travaglione 2003, 113-118). In this paper, we will focus on trust within organizations, since we argue that high levels of intraorganizational trust are a prerequisite for an organization's ability to be perceived as trustworthy by customers, shareholders, and the general public. Many organizations have in the past had great difficulties in building, retaining, or rebuilding the trust of different stakeholder groups.
