WEEKLY VISION DROP
Tip of the Week - Relationships. How we treat each other. Our connections with one another. The ways we interact. How we support and care for one another. This is the key to happiness?
Relationships matter in business. Relationships matter at home. Relationships matter in sports. Relationships matter in personal success.
Bottom line: relationships are critical. That’s why we put relationships front and center, as we work one-on-one with our clients, helping them advance in the direction of their dreams.
No matter the client, we begin our work by getting to know them-- their practical goals, perceived strengths and concerns, interests, quirks and tendencies, aspirations, and more. It’s important for their ultimate success to ensure that we all start from the same place, with the same expectations, working together toward the same objectives - (ahem, alignment)
Quality relationships don’t always form organically, though. In fact, they often take intentional work and attention.
Take initiative. The people helping you are likely to follow your lead. If you’re serious about your stuff, then they’re more likely to invest their maximum time, energy, and effort on your behalf. Ask questions. If you want help, ask for it. Ask follow up questions. Ask clarifying questions. Ask “stupid” questions. Your questions help the person helping you help you more effectively. Ask ‘em. Be receptive to feedback. You might not agree with everything you hear, but you’d be wise to figure out where it’s coming from and how you can incorporate it. Listening between the lines also reveals new opportunities for questions, clarification, and growth.
