The principal reflections of this essay consist of thinking that the interpersonal trust is a prop that promotes and supports the processes of change of the schools in the context of the educational reforms.Nevertheless, Chile and Latin America seem to face a crisis of distrust that comes to the school and to the interpersonal relations that develop between teachers and executives. The interpersonal distrust acts like source of resistance to the change of the schools. For it is that the educational reforms should not ignore this social problematics and, in consequence, they must guard in order that the conditions and basic values, as the interpersonal trust, are present in the school.
