A counterintelligence expert shows readers how to use trust to achieve
anything in business and in life.
Robin Dreeke is a 28-year veteran of federal service, including the
United States Naval Academy, United States Marine Corps. He served most
recently as a senior agent in the FBI, with 20 years of experience. He
was, until recently, the head of the Counterintelligence Behavioral
Analysis Program, where his primary mission was to thwart the efforts of
foreign spies, and to recruit American spies. His core approach in this
mission was to inspire reasonable, well-founded trust among people who
could provide valuable information.
The Code of Trust is based on the system Dreeke devised, tested, and
implemented during years of field work at the highest levels of national
security. Applying his system first to himself, he rose up through
federal law enforcement, and then taught his system to law enforcement
and military officials throughout the country, and later to private
sector clients. The Code of Trust has since elevated executives to
leadership, and changed the culture of entire companies, making them
happier and more productive, as morale soared.
Inspiring trust is not a trick, nor is it an arcane art. It's an
important, character-building endeavor that requires only a sincere
desire to be helpful and sensitive, and the ambition to be more
successful at work and at home. The Code of Trust is based on 5 simple
principles:
1) Suspend Your Ego
2) Be Nonjudgmental
3) Honor Reason
4) Validate Others
5) Be Generous
To be successful with this system, a reader needs only the willingness
to spend eight to ten hours learning a method of trust-building that
took Robin Dreeke almost a lifetime to create.
