Bob Whipple is one of the clearest thinkers I have come across in the trust profession. I have read over a dozen books on trust over the last year and suggest this book to anyone interested in this important subject. Any time I "dog ear" several quotes and learn something new- my reading time was well spent. Whipple has a unique take on what it takes to be trusted in a relationship- his concept of "reinforcing candor" is something that we should all embrace. A clear and an important read...

ASTD Eastern PA Chapter, November 2010 Review
Bob spoke to the general audience at our annual conference that focused on the theme: Building Credibility in the Workplace. His presentation on "Trust and Transparency" was relevant to our theme and very well received by our audience. Bob was an engaging speaker, very knowledgeable and had great variety in discussion, activity and lecture. Support materials were very helpful and content was substantiated with great stories. I strongly recommend Bob and hope to have an opportunity to work with him again in the future.
