The Trust Map · Free · One minute
See where trust is strong, and where it needs attention.
Trust isn’t one thing. Charles Feltman breaks it into four distinctions: Care, Sincerity, Reliability and Competence. The Trust Map asks you to place yourself and your team across those four, so you can see where trust is already working and where to focus next.
How It Works
Four stickers. Four questions.
You place one sticker for each question. Then you’ll see how your map compares with everyone who has taken the Trust Map so far.
You
Your strength
The distinction you’re strongest in.
You
Needs your attention
The one you most want to work on.
Your team
Team strength
Where your team is strongest.
Your team
Team opportunity
Where your team could grow the most.
The Four Distinctions
What trust is made of.
Care
You have my interests in mind as well as your own.
Sincerity
I mean what I say, say what I mean, and act accordingly.
Reliability
You can count on me to deliver what I promise.
Competence
I know I can do this. I need to learn to do that.
Anonymous by Design
No names. No emails.
We don’t ask who you are. Answers are combined to help us understand how trust shows up at work, across roles, industries and team sizes.
What You’ll See
Your map, in context.
After you answer, you’ll see where everyone’s stickers landed, plus a few patterns worth talking about with your team.
For Teams
Map it together. Reveal it together.
In a KindCo workshop, your team maps trust privately, then reveals the pattern as a group. That reveal is where the real conversation starts: what you’re proud of, what you’ve been avoiding, and the one habit that would move it.
The four distinctions of trust and the original sticker exercise come from Charles Feltman, author of The Thin Book of Trust. The Trust Map is a digital version adapted by KindCo, a Trust At Work® Certified Practitioner.
