The literature demonstrates the importance of employee's trust in their leaders to lead in this competitive global scenario. The researcher has validated the short version of 'employee's trust in leaders' which was earlier developed and validated by the Vidotto, Vicentini, Argentero, Bromiley (2007) on the Italian population to measure the organizational trust of employees and at the same time recommended to measure employee's trust in leaders also. The trust scale measures three dimensions originally defined by Bromiley and Cummings (1995): keep commitments, negotiate honestly, and not taking excessive advantage.
