IT ALL STARTS WITH TRUST! -- Building Relationships in Business

IT ALL STARTS WITH TRUST, THAT IS THE FOUNDATION!


- TRUST: you get to know, like, and TRUST your clients, vendors, employees, and Leaders in 4 ways... CONFLICT usually manifests as a result of a breakdown in TRUST in these areas:
(1) CHARACTER
(2) COMPETENCE
(3) CHEMISTRY
(4) COMMUNICATION

-CONFLICT: the fear of this in most relationships leads to dysfunction... when you can have relationships that COMMUNICATE clearly, resolve conflict HONORABLY, and COMMIT to identifying which TRUST issue needs to be dealt with to BUILD TRUST in the RELATIONSHIP then you can have true COMMITTMENT & ACCOUNTABILITY
- COMMITTMENT: our individual GOALS and TEAM GOALS are lined up and can be achieved togeter. We commit to the LEADER of the TEAM and/or the GROUP consensus, even if we don't agree 100% of the time... "the cause is worth fighting for & these are the people that I want along side me fighting for the cause"

ACCOUNTABILITY: When you have a TEAM of people committed to the same CAUSE and GOALS, then and only then can you hold them ACCOUNTABLE for their words and actions. This is a 2 way street that depends on TRUST, COMMITTMENT, and CLEAR COMMUNICATION in resolving CONFLICT.

-END RESULTS: GOALS ACHIEVED. When you have a group of people that TRUST one another in their CHARACTER, COMPETENCE, CHEMISTRY, and they COMMUNICATE clearly and are COMMITTED to one another to resolve CONFLICT in an honorable way and hold each other ACCOUNTABLE for words and actions.. then the END RESULT is your GOALS BEING ACHIEVED quicker, faster, better, and with a lot less casualties.
