1 Listen Actively

Active listening is the cornerstone of any strong relationship. It's about fully concentrating on what is being said rather than just passively 'hearing' the message of the speaker. In your late career, take the time to listen without interrupting, and show genuine interest in the thoughts and concerns of your colleagues. This demonstrates respect and value for their contributions, and they are likely to reciprocate. Reflect on their words and ask clarifying questions to deepen your understanding and connection.

Couldn't agree more. I like the sound of my own voice, but love the sound of my clients or business partners. A professional relationship turns into a business partnership when you know what value both sides can bring to the table.

2 Offer Support

Professional relationships are a two-way street, and offering support is key to nurturing them. Be proactive in recognizing the achievements of others and offer help when they face challenges. This could be as simple as providing advice based on your own experiences or connecting them with resources that can assist. Your willingness to aid colleagues not only strengthens your relationships but also establishes you as a reliable and compassionate figure in your professional circle.

Most definitely. In business, as in life, if it doesn't hurt you, lend a hand. Don't do it expecting a return, but more often than not, you'll see more people wanting to help you out too.

3 Share Expertise

Sharing your expertise is a powerful way to contribute to the growth of your professional network. As someone in the later stages of your career, you possess a wealth of knowledge and experience that can benefit others. Offer mentorship or advice to those who are earlier in their careers, and be open to learning from them as well. This exchange of knowledge fosters mutual respect and keeps you engaged with the evolving trends and fresh perspectives within your field.

4 Maintain Visibility

Staying visible within your professional community is essential for nurturing relationships. Attend industry events, participate in seminars, and engage in discussions on relevant platforms. Your presence reminds others of your expertise and commitment to the field, making it easier to maintain and grow your network. Furthermore, visibility increases the likelihood of serendipitous encounters that can lead to meaningful professional connections.

5 Communicate Clearly

Clear communication cannot be overstated in its importance for maintaining professional relationships. Be concise and articulate in your interactions, ensuring that your messages are understood as intended. This reduces the potential for misunderstandings and fosters a culture of open dialogue. Additionally, be mindful of nonverbal cues, as they can significantly impact how your communication is perceived.

6 Embrace Change

Finally, embracing change is vital in a rapidly evolving professional landscape. Be adaptable in your relationships, recognizing that roles, goals, and dynamics can shift over time. Stay curious and open to new ideas, and support your colleagues as they navigate their own changes. This flexibility not only helps you stay relevant but also signals to others that you are a forward-thinking and resilient professional.

Three top tips: 1. Surround yourself with people that you can learn from - you'll pick up great habits. 2. Be openminded change is inevitable - we would be in caves hunting bears otherwise. 3. Think of ways you can improve what you do or what needs to be done to achieve success. Who can you help in order to get the results and don't be afraid to ask for help.
