The purpose of this study is to examine how six agile practices –team collaboration, competency, flexibility, quickness, changed oriented, result oriented- may support and enhance trust in managers. A quantitative method was used in this study. Based on a sample of 269 employees from Turkey, research analyzed the relationship between study’s variables by using SPSS programs. The study indicates which specific aspects of (women) agile leadership contribute to increasing trust in the managers. Female managers have faced many critical challenges in today dynamic environment. Through the lens of managing effective organizations in a variety of contexts, this study provides important insight into the link between women's agile leadership behaviors and trust in managers. Because there is limited studies about trust in managers in agile context and agile practices (dimensions) in literature. This research is one of the first study to research the impact of agile practices (dimensions) on trust in managers. While dynamic environmental conditions and team members’ personal attributes must be taken into account, agile women leaders practices may also help to create trust among team members and enhance trust in managers.
