Hello

hello – come in and make yourself at home

The Woodies have a blog. It’s a kind of collective. Not sure we’re about to start a revolution baby, but we might kindle a small debate or two and perhaps raise a smile. Anyway, rather than just blogging corporate Woodreed by fielding our top Woodie (as so many other companies seem to do in a thinly veiled attempt at impressing with their profundity), we wanted all our individual voices to be heard. An agency’s most valuable assets are its people after all. Everyone’s got something to say here and with us everyone’s ideas and opinions matter.

Each week someone different will be blogging. It's mostly about stuff that rocks our world as well as the flipside – the things that just don't cut it with us. We'll blog about inside and outside – inside this glorious industry where we work and outside in the real world.
It's a bit of an experiment, so go with us on this one.

Hope you enjoy.

Have you spent your trust fund?

What’s your corporate vision statement? Chances are it’s got something to do with trust. A cursory glance at the first page of Google’s 2,830,000 results for ‘vision to be the most trusted’ reveals a raft of organisations all with the same ambition…to be trusted.
     
“To be recognised as the most trusted partner to our global clients”

“To be the most trusted source of aviation and high-integrity solutions in the world”    

“To be the most trusted provider of essential services…”
    
“To be our customers' most valued and trusted business partner”
   
“To be the world’s most trusted financial group”
           
And on it goes…
          
Compare this with declining levels of trust inside organisations, and we reckon there's more chance of Eddie the Eagle popping up and pipping Usain Bolt at the post in Rio, than ambitions like these ever being realised.
   
Woodreed’s been thinking about the issue of organisational trust, and how businesses can begin to bridge the gap between their ambitions for customer trust and levels of trust inside their own organisations.
