Credibility leads to trust

Building trust and collaboration

When flying in formation, trust and collaboration aren’t optional – they’re vital. Without them, the team fractures, frustration builds, and outcomes suffer. Mandy has seen this play out in the skies and on the ground. Diverse thinking is often present within organisations, but it’s rendered useless without an environment of trust to bind it together. The result? Conflict, misalignment, and missed opportunities.

So, how do leaders bridge this gap? It starts with curiosity – choosing to explore instead of assigning blame. Leaders must focus on shared goals rather than individual wins and create spaces where robust, respectful debate is encouraged. Challenge the process; encourage everyone to question. Confirmation bias is a natural phenomenon, and if left unguarded, it can cause mismatches in organisations or individuals' perceptions. These were the principles that kept Mandy and her crew united under pressure and are equally applicable in any organisation.
