Uncommon Connections: The Human Side of Business
 
All opportunities come from people. The leaders who understand how to get their team to to make, grow and keep their business relationships find success in all economic situations.  
 
All things being equal, people choose to do business with those they know, like, and trust. But not all relationships in your business or personal life are created equally. A like, link, share, or follow is not necessarily a powerful engagement. And in uncertain times, we gravitate toward established relationships in all aspects of our lives. 
 
Relationships with clients, prospects, and vendors are more successful when we have a personal connection. But to do this right means rethinking how we invest in people.  This is even more important when it comes to relationships inside the company.  People who have real friendships at work are shown to stay longer and are more fulfilled in their jobs. 
 
The contacts with whom you build long-term and mutually beneficial relationships that impact your life are rare. These “Uncommon Connections” can be cultivated and should be cherished. This presentation is an action packed look at how to create business friendships, build trust, and create unlimited opportunities.
