Abstract
Catching problems early is important to managers, and the best way to find out about developing headaches is to have subordinates tell you. This depends on candor and trust, but both have strict natural limits. Managers must carefully nurture trust and be aware of the six areas critical to its development: communication, support, respect, fairness, predictability, and competence. But managers must also watch for telltale signs of trouble. Managers must develop a communication network based on properly using, spreading, and creating information.
