Claims two actionable mind shifts — build credibility and raise EQ — plus two workplace moves: advocate change and manage reputation. Lists 13 specific trust behaviors (talk straight, keep commitments, extend trust). Gives a concrete case: given one week prototype to rework an image host, rejects a 4x refactor, builds a completely new approach that is ~10x faster than the current system (later ~8x after safeguards, ~40x vs production) and saved $4M.
