EP041: Stand Out By Building Strong Relationships in Business

Most people at one stage or another in their career want to know how to build strong relationships in business. How do you get people to know you, like you and trust you in business? 

You may have been overlooked for promotions. Or perhaps you’ve seen high-level projects being awarded to people who are less skilled than you.

In both these cases, I guarantee that the person who won the promotion or high-level project did so because of relationships they’ve built in their company or industry.

For your career progression and leadership success, it’s critical that you learn how relationships work and how to build them. As they say, when you realise you need a business relationship with somebody, it’s too late to start forming it.

Whether you’re an employee or an entrepreneur, strong relationships are the competitive edge you need to succeed. 

In this episode of The Leadership Pod, you will learn the importance of building strong relationships in business so you can stand out!
