CHRP CPD Points: 3.0
As much as 80 or 90% of everything we accomplish is done so with the assistance of others and our success as leaders depends in large part on the influence we build within our organization and our networks. Great relationships are instrumental to our influence and ultimate success. As professionals, we interact with a variety of people and yet building strong interpersonal relationships in today's business world can be challenging. As we become more connected digitally, it takes seemingly more effort to achieve real interpersonal connections.
Strategic relationship skills are a leadership competency allowing us to assess and meet the needs of others while accomplishing the goals we set out to achieve as we build trusting relationships. Whether you are an introvert or extrovert, shy or gregarious, strategic relationship skills can help improve your business rapport with clients, team members, bosses, and direct reports, with a vision of creating strong relationships to support the achievement of your organizational goals.
In this interactive session, participants will explore some of the fundamental strategic relationship skills, including some practical tips to help you build stronger relationships across your personal and professional networks as an HR professional.
Learning Outcomes:
- Understanding your adaptable relationship style and your personal preferences including how they influence your interpersonal interactions and relationship building skills
- Practical approaches to interaction opportunities to assist in building stronger relationships, including assessing the preferences and needs of others and adapting your approach to meet the needs of others.
- Effective strategies for remembering the names of people you meet
- Putting these tools to use in your role as an HR professional
