Welcome to the Trust Foundations Assessment
This assessment is a mirror, not a window. It will only reflect what you're willing to see.
The Questions
You'll explore 45 questions through multiple lenses—what you observe, what you experience, and what's possible when trust is present. Some questions will feel affirming. Others might sting with recognition. All are designed to help your team see clearly.
Rating Scale: Never · Rarely · Sometimes · Often · Almost Always
Before you begin:
Please hold in your mind the specific team you're part of—the group that's taking this assessment together. When we ask about "team members" or patterns, we mean THIS specific group of people you work with regularly.
A crucial reminder: Every team has trust challenges—it's what makes us human. Your individual responses will remain completely confidential and will never be shared with anyone. We combine all responses to create insights for the whole team.
Be courageously honest. The magic happens when everyone shares their authentic experience. If you find yourself hovering in the middle, ask yourself: "What's my lived experience on this team?"
Your truth, combined with your teammates' truths, creates the clarity your team needs to grow stronger together.
Take a breath. Think of your team. Begin when ready.
