Who do you trust? A friend? A work associate? Your boss? Your spouse? A parent? A child? Why do you trust this person? Now consider an even more provocative question: Who trusts you? People at home? At work? Someone you just met or someone you have known for a long time? What is it in you that inspires the trust of others?
Most of us tend to think about trust in terms of character, of being a good or sincere person. But trust based on only character is a myth. Trust is a function of two things:
• Character your integrity, motive, and intent with people
• Competence your capabilities, skills, results, and track record
While it may come more naturally for us to think of trust in terms of character, it’s equally important that we also learn to think in terms of competence. Recognising the role competence helps us identify and give language to underlying trust issues we otherwise can’t put a finger on
Trust is Vital for High-Performing School Teams
Water is the vital substance that sustains all life on this planet. When it’s there, everything flourishes and grows When it’s not there, everything withers and dies The same is true for trust. Where there is no trust, relationships decay, communication and collaboration stop, people disengage or leave, initiatives under-perform, and work grinds to a crawl

Trust is a function of two things: Character and Competence
When trust is low, people become suspicious, guard communication, speculate, and disengage. As a result, productivity grinds to a crawl, and costs increase We call these trust taxes.
When trust is high, people become confident and communication, creativity, and engagement improve. As a result, productivity speeds up and costs decrease. We call these trust dividends.
Leading at the Speed of Trust helps leaders strengthen their trust signals to convert trust taxes into trust dividends and propel their team further, faster.

COACHING
ART OF LEADERSHIP MASTERCLASS TEAM
Trust is today’s currency - and everything a Principal or School Leader says and does affects the level of trust on their team
In a world where trust has been eroded in every facet of life, being able to build trust within a school culture is imperative for creating an environment where everyone feels seen, heard and understood and where everyone belongs and feels safe.
Through Coaching, Principals and School Leaders will learn how to authentically use the 4 Cores of Credibility and the 13 Behaviors® of High Trust in every engagement, to create a high trust and inclusive culture within their school, where everyone is inspired to bring their best self to work everyday.

NSW Educator Perception Study Results
During the NSWPPA Primary Principal’s Conference in October, FranklinCovey Education undertook a survey to gain the perception of NSW Educators (and in particular Principals), into some of the areas they have found challenging during the 2024 school year, compared to the 2023 school year
While I am sure the results won’t surprise you, the areas that Principals indicated were their greatest challenge were:
Teacher well-being - with 24% of the vote
Student’s disruptive behaviour - with 22% of the vote
Teacher burnout - with 16% of the vote
With Teacher burnout and well-being both being rated as more than 50% worse in 2023, than in 2024
Other options provided within the survey made up the remainder being students’ engagement in their learning, students’ respect for others, and then teacher leadership opportunities, rating the lowest - with only 5% of Principals indicating this was a challenge.
When asked how confident Principals were on being able to make significant improvements to their greatest challenge in 2025, an overwhelming 63% indicated they were somewhat confident, although anecdotally, feedback was that this was based on hope
Other anecdotal feedback shared aligned very closely with our global research in this area, and that was surrounding the changes in societal and generational expectations and perceptions With more families and caregivers suffering from greater anxiety, stress and burnout, the impact of this is often felt by teachers who are navigating the resulting heightened emotions, within their daily interactions with families and caregivers
Thank you to all who contributed to this survey, and if you would like to receive some resources to support your school challenges in 2025, please contact Claire Banks at FranklinCovey Education on claire banks@franklincovey com au or via phone on 0401 445 266
