Welcome to Sportopia, the place to re-imagine the future of sport! This week, hosts Dina Bell-Laroche and Steve Indig, are digging into a topic near and dear to them focusing on how to fuel cultures of trust. They know that so often, when trust is low, everything slows down and the cost goes up. When trust levels are high, teams can travel faster, together, and the cost goes down. Clearly, there is an economic incentive for leaders to both measure and invest in high trust environments. Listen in as Steve and Dina explore trust or what Steven Covey calls, “the glue of life”.
