Quick Win: How to rebuild trust at work when its broken

Trust doesn’t rebuild with one big apology. It grows back quietly - through small, consistent moments that prove you mean what you say.

In this Quick Win episode, my teammate Aly Solly and I share how we rebuilt trust after one of Inventium’s toughest years. Together, we discovered that trust isn’t restored overnight - it’s rebuilt in small, deliberate ways that show care, honesty, and vulnerability.

Aly and I discuss:

The moment a leadership wellbeing survey sparked real vulnerability Why openness - when it feels uncomfortable - can transform a relationship How showing up consistently matters more than grand gestures The “ugly cry” call that turned a breaking point into a rebuild What to do when you’re trying to repair trust at work

KEY QUOTES

“Trust doesn’t hinge on one big apology or grand gesture. It’s built through the small stuff - the check-ins, the honesty, the willingness to be vulnerable.”

“You don’t wait for the perfect moment. You just start showing up consistently and with care.”
