Relationships 101

Leadership is a relationship-intensive endeavor. If your people skills aren't strong, neither will be your leadership. "If people aren't following you," sums up New York Times and Business Week best-selling author Dr. John C. Maxwell, "then you're not really leading." In Relationships 101 , Maxwell provides time-tested principles for developing healthy relationships with others-inside and outside of your organization - such as: The fundamentals common to all good relationships; How to motivate people by knowing five things everyone has in common; How to create a lasting connection with people on your team; Why listening skills can be a leader's best friend; The crucial factor that creates the foundation of all good relationships; The most important relationship for any person's success. "Winning in every area of life comes from winning with people".
