A long term good relationship--unbiased....All of sudden it may not happen --it is coming under practice--give and take respect--delegate and act trust worthy towards employees you manage with no pre conditioned notions.

Here are five ways to help you build trust quickly as a manager (or to help keep your manager on their game):1. Build Rapport Building rapport is no easy task. It requires you to be a great listener (not just a good one). Managers who are listening take good notes, are quick to follow through, and are responsible enough to proactively address your immediate needs and requirements to help you be more successful. Effective managers are also good at engaging with difficult personalities and situations. For example, early in my career, I learned a valuable lesson: people don’t like having a much younger boss. Instead of viewing them merely as difficult people, I made it my responsibility to empower them and help them to be more successful. After they received their well-deserved recognition and bonuses, they quickly forgot about my age. If there was envy, it was converted into opportunity.2. Take a Diplomatic Approach Learning how to be politically (and authentically) correct is a requirement. This means a manager must always be mindful of doing the right thing – and at times making trade-offs in order to be given new opportunities and have greater influence down the road. An effective manager exercises good judgment and knows how to pick and choose his battles. He is all about supporting the team and believes in consensus-building methods to create harmony (especially when there are many egos involved). Strong managers recognize that perception is reality and thus will play the political game accordingly to protect his team and mobilize their agenda.3. Establish Credibility Effective managers must establish their credibility (and I am not talking about past positions/previous titles). The most effective managers always follow-up, are true to their word, have a proven track record, and have a reputation of getting things done. The best managers earn respect through performance. Not only do they drive business results, but they serve as mentors and sponsors who help teach others how to do the same. High-performance managers get their hands dirty and are not afraid of rolling up their sleeves. They get in the game and remain active – they stay in it to win it. Strong managers are also consistent in their approach and style: how they operate, how they get results, and how they build teams and relationships within the organization. Above all, they don’t have hidden agendas!4. Engage in Conflict Resolution Managers who solve problems with clarity are extremely effective. Effective managers empower others to make suggestions and recommendations. They are masters at conflict management and are eloquent in addressing problems and getting others involved to find immediate resolution. Managers like this are methodical in how they break down conflict into manageable pieces.. They view conflict as an opportunity to build new relationships and as a powerful learning moment to train their team(s) to manage conflict for themselves.5. Be a Strong Communicator This is the most important and effective way for managers to earn trust quickly: be a strong communicator. I remember when I was a young manager; I always took the time to communicate across all levels of the organization; to get to know everyone directly and indirectly involved with my business unit (those who could potentially influence outcomes and decisions). This extra step always made it easier for me to communicate needs for my team and allowed my team to more effectively communicate with the key players in the organization. Because my credibility had been earned, it helped my team learn to trust me (knowing that I ultimately had their best interests in mind). Communication helps break down departmental silos and creates interdependency between people – thus building strong workplace alliances. It improves relationships and creates an effective groupthink environment that further promotes teamwork and consensus

Trust is often talked about as the bedrock of a company’s success. Most people think about the issue in terms of customers: They have to believe in you and your products and services. But trust within the organization is just as important: Your employees must believe in each other. When they don’t, communication, teamwork and performance inevitably suffer.
