To trust or suspect

At work, the need for trust is so essential.
Of course, that also applies to personal relationships, but today I'm reflecting on the relationship of supervisor to employee. It seems to be much a part of intuition to feel that a person can't be trusted. Sometimes it is very difficult to determine what is fact, and what is feeling.

Is it more important in a large organization or small?

When does caution become paranoia?

What can be done to establish trust or confirm its absence?

Why can't this wisdom be built into us like other things we are taught?

How significant a problem is this?

Is it a valid basis for dismissal?
These are things I wonder about.
