Not the parent. I have noticed there are two kinds of trust relationships. The first is pure office politics. You have long term creditability, therefore everyone knows not to try their manipulative tactics on you, engage with you professionally, and therefore you have a trust relationship. This is akin to being a made man. The second kind of trust relationship I have encountered are with very religious devout people who believe they are doing God’s will to help others and with people who have sense of humor that builds people up not take them down. They don’t take themselves too seriously and just want do a good job and get along with everyone.
