Asking someone to find a way to trust a person in a position of power is completely inappropriate. Don’t do it.

People in a position of power should go out of their way to become trusted.

Trust must be earned. It can’t be given*. It’s a hard work, and it’s an uncomfortable work. But without trust, the only way to lead is by using force, and that usually doesn’t work out in the long run.

* It can however be bridged, but only temporarily.
