Trust and Distrust In Organizations: Dilemmas and Approaches
Roderick M. Kramer,Karen S. Cook +1 more
Abstract: FOR MORE than a decade now, the topic of trust has been at the center of scholarly research on organizations. The ascension of trust as a major focus of research in the organizational sciences reflects in no small measure a large body of evidence documenting the substantial and varied benefits that accrue when trust is in place within organizational boundaries. Coupled with this strong evidence of the benefits of trust is an acute appreciation of the problematic nature of organizational trust. Although trust may be a desirable resource, it is often a fragile and elusive one. Interest in trust as an important dimension of organizational functioning was initially stimulated by a number of influential works on social trust, including most notably Robert Putnam’s (1993) provocative findings implicating trust as a critical factor in explaining the origins of civic engagement and the development of democratic regimes in Italian communities. Putnam’s argument attracted wide attention and was followed up by Francis Fukuyama’s (1995) comparative survey of evidence that trust plays a critical role in societal functioning. In the years following these initial landmark volumes, a number of additional works (for example, Cook 2001; Hardin 2002; Putnam 2000; Sztompka 1999) have added to the stock of studies of trust in the social sciences. Viewed in the aggregate, these contributions converge on the conclusion that trust often constitutes an important resource within social systems.
