Helping leaders succeed from day one

Trust makes everything flow

Trust makes working with others easier, faster, and better, yet most people can’t explain what trust really is, how it’s built, or how to repair it once it breaks.

 

Grip on Trust helps individuals and organizations understand, measure, and strengthen trust before it becomes a problem. As trained concept designers, mentors and trainers, we’ve developed practical tools that make trust visible, revealing what’s working, what’s uncertain, and which conversations are needed to move forward with clarity and confidence.​

What is the value of Trust?

Better Leadership & Decision-making:

When leaders act on clear values, people trust their decisions, even when they disagree. Organizations built on trust show up to higher enterprise value and perform up to better than their peers.

Greater Resilience & Adapatbility:

In high-trust workplaces, 94% of employees adapt quickly to change and experience 74% less stress. Teams become 11× more innovative and adaptable when trust is strong.​

Higher Retention & Performance:

In high-trust organizations, 83% of employees stay longer and motivation is 80% higher. Profitability rises by 33%, supported by stronger engagement and collaboration.
