DESCRIPTION:Join us for a 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ School of Information Studies (SIS) Semina
 r Series talk on the role of trust in organizational knowledge sharing wit
 h Dr. Max Evans.\nABSTRACT\nInterpersonal and organizational trust is the 
 foundation of a successful organizational culture. A culture of trust incr
 eases firm performance\, fosters a capacity for individual and collective 
 action\, increases organizational learning\, reduces problem complexity an
 d uncertainty\, and helps to uncover innovative solutions. Trust also play
 s a critical role in information and knowledge sharing – enhancing collabo
 ration and cooperation\, as well as encouraging knowledge creation and tra
 nsfer. To gain a broader perspective of trust in organizations\, we will e
 xamine the basic definition of trust and look at how it relates to informa
 tion and knowledge sharing. In addition\, we will discuss characteristics 
 of a trusting organizational culture and tactics for gauging and measuring
  trust and organizational culture. We will conclude by proposing some impe
 rative individual and leadership behaviours for building trust in the orga
 nization.\nBIO\nDr. Max Evans (BSc\, MISt\, PhD) is an Assistant Professor
