Trust?

Are you the professional who trusts her staff to do their job or are you the one who checks up on them?

I want to trust; I do trust. It's impossible to always be there and check up on your staff - as Hall Directors, we aren't present when our students are having conversations with their residents, we can't go to all events and corridor meetings, we can't check up on them during every office hours, we don't do rounds with our staff during duty shifts, etc. We have to trust; there's no other way. But then something happens and suddenly you start questioning that trust - and suddenly you're not just question whether or not your staff did that one thing, you start to question everything....
