In today’s matrix and virtual world, relationships are still a foundational part of business success. One of the challenges however is that it’s not as easy to “get to know” our partners who might be several time-zones or thousands of miles away.
It is important to be proactive and build in time building relationships with our partners. Where possible, try to stream, so you can see each other, and like face-to-face meetings, spend time listening and learning about their work, their priorities and preferences around how they like to work.
This week as a team, make a list of relationships which are key for the year. Think about your biggest projects and also what relationships can help you move ahead in the longer term. Building in time for yourselves as a team to get to know each other better as well.
Enjoy the conversations,
