This is never easy , but I have been responsible for many multi million pounds projects in my time and one thing stands me in good stead 1) always believe in what you are delivering. 2) never under estimate the push back you will get from the organisation 3) always be as honest and transparent as you can be. 4) try an see the problems from both sides 5) always be clear on your objectives and communicate them and stick by them After all we have seen so very recently that chopping and changing without a clear strategy puts people in the zone of mistrust.

To rebuild trust between project managers, start by having open and honest talks. Set up regular meetings where everyone can share their thoughts and concerns. Be clear about goals and deadlines, and be open about any challenges. Recognize and value each other’s strengths and celebrate successes together. Share information and resources so no one feels left out or overwhelmed. Always keep promises to show you can be relied on. Doing these things consistently will help create trust and improve teamwork.

The first step is understanding. Why is trust lacking? You can only start to fix a problem once you understand it fully. Personally, I would reach out to team members individually to start assessing the situation. Most importantly, just listen at first.

Among a number of things that could be done, one thing that stands out is the team bonding and ironing out the conflict by understanding the disconnect or communication gap leading to this situation. This could be followed up with numerous action items depending on the context of this situation.

This suggests that both parties are not aligned on -key issues or -have concerns that need to be addressed. It would be more effective -to address these concerns in a way that emphasizes their shared responsibility for the broader objectives of the program they are both involved in.
