How digital transformation can make a positive contribution to the challenge of customer trust. Read On!
As businesses undergo digital transformation, the role of trust is becoming increasingly important. However, a decline in trust- prompted by unease at the way some organizations are using digital technology- could undermine the societal benefits of digitalization. Transformational teams must be made up of diverse members committed to a shared vision--and this requires trust between everyone involved. When people come together towards a common goal, they must believe in each other's abilities in order to succeed. This type of team environment can only be created when there is mutual trust between all members.
Since trust is so important in today's society, it's no wonder that it has become a hot topic in the tech world. In order to build and maintain trust, we need to understand what it is and how it works. Trust is key in our personal lives, as well as in business. When looking at the happiness of different societies, we can see that those with high levels of corruption are also some of the unhappiest countries in the world. This is because when people don't trust the people and institutions around them, it creates a feeling of unhappiness and isolation.
The crisis of trust in business is a growing concern for many people. A recent study showed that the majority of respondents are alarmed by the rate at which companies could replace human talent with artificial intelligence. This lack of trust can have a serious impact on enterprise performance, as it creates an expectation for CEOs to take the lead on addressing societal issues.
Trust is now a key factor in enterprise performance, and it can influence stock prices or employee engagement. More and more, businesses are realizing that they need to focus on building trust if they want to be successful. Trustworthy companies outperform other companies, which will lead to better performance and a higher rate of repeat customers. Employees who trust their leaders are happier with their jobs and more committed to their organization than employees who do not follow trusted leaders.
The digital age has brought about a crisis of trust, as we are no longer able to rely on the institutions that have traditionally been responsible for safeguarding it. Facebook, Twitter, and Google have built their business models on advertising, and in order to attract attention (and clicks), they publish massive amounts of clickbait and fake news. This has disturbed our perception of what is real and what is not, and we are now questioning how much we can trust these platforms to organize our lives. We must first reconsider how we can organize trust in a sustainable way before making a big leap into the unknown. Technology-based solutions such as the token economy, autonomous intelligent systems, and self-organizing platforms may be able to help us regain trust, but we need to take into account the risks involved before deciding who and what we trust.
