The Topic: Relationships Affect Performance - The Key Steps to Building Strong Client Relationships

In business, we need to know how to build strong relationships with all our clients: employees, peers, managers, and external clients. But too often, we see our role as completing tasks for clients rather than building strong client relationships. How do you build strong relationships? Leaders do it naturally, but for the rest of us, there is little available on how to develop this important skill.

Through research and experience, Phil Baudin has developed a model that outlines the key steps to building successful long-term client relationships. This model goes well beyond the current service-based approach taken by many of us and explores how to develop two other critical areas of a client relationship - the personal relationship and the value relationship.

What will you learn?

In this lively and participative session, you will learn:

  • Why strong relationships are more important now than ever before
  • The most common mistakes we make in client relationships
  • How to deconstruct a client relationship and focus on improving it
  • How to continually create more value for your performance improvement client
