A culture or environment of trust

Micro level• Trust between student and mentor, and

student and lecturer accepted as good practice (Callaghan et al 2009, Kilkullen 2007, Pearcey & Elliot 2004)

• Belongingness (Levett-Jones et al 2006)

Macro Level• Competition and competitiveness in the

NHS leading to social embeddeness (Ferlie 1994, McKee et al 2008)

Trust

• Trust becomes relevant when social interaction is based on uncertainty (Smith 2005)

• People who do not trust one another cooperate under a system of formal rules (Fukuyama 2000)

• Networks for engagement (Addicott et al 2006)
