  4. Trust Circle Rules • We are going to learn about trust and its importance in leadership. • This is a serious activity. • Trust must be maintained at all times. • No horseplay or fooling around is allowed. • Anyone who wishes may decline to fall. Venturing Leadership Skills Course

  5. Trust Circle Procedure • No action begins until signals are given. • No bantering between participants. • Faller is not to move his or her feet. • Faller says “Ready to fall” • Spotters say “Fall away” • Faller says “Falling” Venturing Leadership Skills Course

Synergism Reflection Questions • What went through your mind the first time you fell? • Was it easy to trust in this situation? • Were some people in the circle easier to trust than others? • Where role were you comfortable in, faller or spotter? Why? • What does building relationships of trust have to do with leadership? • Is true leadership really possible without trust? Venturing Leadership Skills Course

  7. Synergism “One of the most important ways to manifest integrity is to be loyal to those who are not present. In doing so, we build the trust of those who are present. When you defend those who are absent, you retain the trust of those present.” Stephen R. Covey Venturing Leadership Skills Course
