A colleague asked me last week how to establish a relationship with someone on my team. I shared the old adage, it takes you 6 times meeting someone to build a relationship. In a virtual world, it’s even harder.
What are six things you can do in those meetings to build the bedrock of trust?
- Listen
- Summarize what people are telling you
- Follow up on key items in the meeting in 24 hours
- Ask about origin stories
- Ask about their values
- Share your values
Here is to building a mountain of trusted relationships in 2021.
