What is Enterprise Trust?

Enterprise Trust is a prediction mechanism used by senior leadership where confidence is granted not based on past performance or role mastery, but on an operator's ability to forecast pipeline volatility. Unlike interpersonal trust, Enterprise Trust is a risk assessment of your ability to see what is coming and reduce the cost of uncertainty before it creates damage or delay within the organization.

Key Concepts:

- Value Perimeter: A strategic boundary defined by the outcomes leadership trusts you to uphold, distinct from your "Job Description" which is merely a decaying list of tasks.

- Executive Underwriting: The mental shift from asking "Can I do this?" to valuating the economic reality of a decision. It requires pricing the cost of inaction and the probability of loss rather than seeking validation.

- Consequence Literacy: The ability to prioritize homeostasis (stability) over brilliance (being correct). It is the skill of identifying and reducing unwanted surprises in a complex ecosystem.

- Bilingual Translation: The capacity to speak both the technical language of direct reports and the enterprise-level language of meaning required by the C-Suite.

Which is blocking promotions more in your environment:

A) internal politics/visibility or B) enterprise trust (your ability to reduce uncertainty)?
