WONDERFUL! Spot on Robin! I'm basing an entire business on this now. My Dad who was an epic pioneer in the 1960s in London as Creative Director of JWT responsible for some of the most iconic and memorable Ads of all time - taught me all that you say here. Until a decade ago brands and people prided themselves on being 'Trustworthy'. Betrayal trauma is VERY REAL and when trust is broken EVERYTHING is broken. As both Dr Ramani and Dr Christianna Northrop both medical experts on Narcissism psychopathy and Sociopths both independently say the we have a global pandemic of psychopathy and greed they reckon 1 in 5 now presenting as a 'Cluster-B' i reckon from personal experience its more like 1-3 - who can you trust!!???

Thank you Robin for laying out the groundwork = as now question it is now trustworthy people and brands that are the sexy ones as the chiselers and liers and cheats all start to look like what they are and the global market is walking away from the old model towards more transparency and integrity and trustworthy products companies and individuals./

1. Observing body language and tone of voice.

The first thing I notice is the person’s physical behavior. If I see discrepancies between what they say and how they move, my trust starts to waver.

.

2. How they use money.

What do they buy and where do they invest? Do their purchases reflect values similar to mine? Ultimately, what we "finance" says a lot about who we are and what we prioritize.

.

3. Speaking ill of the absent.

Criticizing someone who isn't present is a clear sign of disrespect. A behavior that intentionally hurts others reveals a lack of integrity and destroys my trust.
