One of the biggest lessons I've learned about relationships is that some of the most important and valuable relationships aren't necessarily the most obvious ones or the easiest to navigate. In my career, I've come across many individuals in which there has been clear differences in opinions, personalities, and approaches to work where it would have been easier to ignore and decide not to engage. However, this would have led to missed opportunities to learn and gain new perspectives from people that ended up making a huge difference to my life and career. Don't underestimate building relationships with people who challenge your way of thinking and help you uncover your blind spots.

Client success is based on 2 fundamental pillars: Measuring value & Nurturing relationships- The first is defining clear metrics aligning with your client's goals. These could encompass revenue growth, cost savings, or other KPIs. Regularly assess progress and ask for feedback to ensure your offerings continually meet their needs. Demonstrating a tangible return on investment solidifies the value proposition, often through success stories or data-driven evidence. Flexibility is essential; be ready to adapt your strategies as client needs evolve. Secondly, Strong client relationships are built on trust and communication.

The best way to strengthen any relationship is by asking about them! People love to talk about themselves and their journey and why shouldn't they! So actually take an interest in them and their lives! And check in on them regularly with no hidden agenda. If people think you're only getting in touch to sell, then it can make it hard to build a long standing relationship.

Achieving client success is anchored in delivering concrete facts. Facts remain steadfast, unaffected by emotions, and indisputable. When you provide factual information, you maintain a focus solely on metrics and objective realities, ensuring clarity and precision in decision-making. To achieve this, it's essential to establish robust measurement systems, regularly assess progress against clear metrics, and provide data-driven evidence to support these facts. This approach not only keeps emotions at bay but also reinforces trust and confidence in your client relationships.

Every relationship is bound to see its challenges over time. No relationship can be perfect coz no human is!

But here is thing, every time I found myself in this zone I sat down to actually write the reasons I held on so long. The piece of paper filled in with the smallest acts and the tiniest details but what I realized is, in the long run it matters the most. So while you are busy measuring your relationship, dont forget the little things coz pennies weigh a lot more than dollars when measured!

Asking for feedback on connections and relationships from your clients - if there’s something they particularly like or if something in particular could be improved upon. This will give you some insight into tour company approach and any personal limitations.
