Organizations,
businesses and politicians
often communicate appearing to care or give you the inside scoop. The problem develops when those words serve to
explain little, prompting confusion or mistrust.
There’s a fine
line between passing information and communicating in a vacuum.
When
addressing the masses don’t presume we are dumb enough to believe “warm fuzzy words” without substance or
action.
Anger,
frustration, blame and mistrust increases due to spin, half-truths or rhetoric.
Eventually customers, employees and voters find it easier to discount anything written
or spoken as truth.
Unions, Tea
Parties, Occupy Wall Street, and other groups of
people have been formed as a result of mistrust. Acts of Civil
War have their roots inspired by this powerful cowardly deed.
When a lack of transparency becomes
the focal point, secrecy only serves to breath disconnect of epic proportions to
your audience.
It’s far
better to be transparent, honest and live up to your written or spoken
intentions.
Anything less, is hardly worth our
time.
How do you feel about this issue? Do
you give people, organizations and politicians the benefit of the doubt? Where
do you draw the line? Who exemplifies transparency? I’d love to hear your
comments.
Until
We Meet Again,
