Leadership and Trust

I'm in the process of writing an e-book about leadership (tentatively titled On My Honor); from both the technical side and the people side. The people side will be based upon scouting principles...things like trustworthy, loyal, etc...you know the 12 scout laws we learned as kids...and which values seem to be missing in many of today's leaders. I've attached my first stab at the concept of trust and how it translates from kids (scouts) to adults to leaders. I'd like to get some of your comments to let me know if I'm on the right track here. Examples of trust (won and lost) would be helpful if you'd like to contribute to my writing. I will be sending out additional posts when as I write about the other values and about leadership skills like how to hold people accountable for outcomes and how to motivate others (even when your personality is kind of dull).
