  2. Communication: The Path to Trust • Keeping people together in a team depends upon open channels of communication between the people and their leaders. • During serious discussions, ask questions, try not to take sides, let everyone debate and discuss --- and then attempt to arrive at consensus.

  3. Consultation with Others • Winning allies is more difficult in the absence of facts. • Life at its best is a creative synthesis of opposites in fruitful harmony. • Create a committee that provides you with advice on a regularly scheduled basis. • When considering major decisions, assemble trusted advisers together and confer with them.

  4. Inclusion: A Key to Trust • The wider range of opinions your hear, the better chance you have of extracting the truth. • People want to be included in decisions that affect their future. • This is not a matter of personal power, but one of self-worth. • Appeal to the sense of morality and decency of the people on the other side of the negotiating table.

  5. Trust and the Path Ahead. • Always be willing to talk and see fair compromise. • Humanity is waiting for something other than a blind imitation of the past. • The first step in the change process is raising awareness. The second step is to involve others in the planning process. • Freedom is necessary for a person’s selfhood and intrinsic worth.
