As the world emerges from the global pandemic and faces new geo-political challenges, it is increasingly clear that trust is the most important currency for governments, institutions and businesses. Trust is essential for social cohesion and well-being as it affects a government’s ability to govern. Consequently, it is an efficient means of lowering transaction costs in any social, economic and political relationship.
As nations search for a path back to normalcy and economic recovery, the challenge many will face is not only knowing which policies to choose, but also how to implement those policies. Ultimately, the capacity to implement depends crucially on trust. Without trust in governments, markets and institutions, public support for necessary policies is difficult to muster, particularly where short-term sacrifices are involved and long-term gains might be less tangible.
Join the conversation at the CNA Leadership Summit as we bring together leaders from the public and private sector, as well as civil society and newsmakers, to discuss the challenges and opportunities of building trust in the 21st century.
