The research about trust is a very important topic for sociology, psychology, and organizational behavior science. And the research about organizational trust has drawn a lot of attention over the past decade from both practitioners and researchers. And trust in leadership as an research direction is a psychological state comprising the intention to accept vulnerability based upon positive expectations of the intentions or behavior of another. This positive psychological state of the employee taking for the supervisor will make important influence on the employee's positive behavior in the workplace, this is important for the employee's and the organization's development.Through some methods such as literature analysis and questionnaire investigation, the trust in leadership has been studied. Taking exploratory investigation, confirmatory factor analysis, independent-Samples T Test, One-Way ANOVA, regression analysis, hierarchical regression analysis, this research discussed the relation between the employee trust in supervisor and enterprising behavior and achievement motivation. In our study the participants is the employee and his (or hers) immediate supervisor. There are four conclusions in this research:1. Significant difference of trust in supervisor were found comparing the staff with different sex, different ages, different firm size, different supervisor's state, the different sex of the supervisor, the different ages of the supervisor, and the number of employees in firm.2. There is significant positive correlation between trust in supervisor and the employee's enterprising behavior, and both affect-based trust and cognition-based trust have a significant effect on the employee's enterprising behavior. 3. Our findings indicate that achievement motivation do not moderate the proposed trust-behavior relationship. We call for further research on other moderating variables to explain the findings.
