CALM 33 - Relationships - 4 Steps from connection to a powerful call to action People With Purpose

    • Self-Improvement

In this episode, which is the 33rd of his CALM leadership series David continues to look at how leaders can build strong relationships that benefit both parties. Something that is essential for anyone who wants to be an effective leader. 

David explains how to approach relationships with a clear understanding of what you are hoping to achieve, build rapport and long-term relationships. He shares the 4-step approach he uses which works for every scenario.

KEY TAKEAWAYS


When it comes to relationships, good leaders lead. They actively work to build long-lasting and fruitful relationships.
Set a goal for the relationship e.g. turning your supplier into someone who actively seeks out the best deals for you.
For every relationship you should have a goal, an outcome and potentially a plan.
Build relationships for the long term. 
Never forget relationships are two-way it is not only about what they can do for you.
Really listen. Ask questions and give time for answers.
Set expectations from an early stage. A context for that relationship.
Look for the win wins.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Leaders lead in relationships.’

‘Really listen, be interested in the other person.’

‘Conclude with a call to action.’

‘Find a context for that relationship to flourish.’

 

ABOUT THE SHOW

People with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harness that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far, we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life.
