Segment 4: FAQ Section 3: EE in Relationships
1. How do you use EE in building networking relationships?
Recurring: show up for the groups (physically and mentally), give value by speaking, providing leads and tips to others, talking up others in the group, not dominating the group
Random: choose one or two people you want to build a relationship with and quickly earn the right to ask them for another meeting
Collective: give value to the group as a whole
Singular: do one to ones so you can get to know individual members and can then practice The Platinum Rule
2. How do you use EE to build relationships in the workplace?
Be a Giver (Give and Take by Adam Grant)
As a leader, realize a paycheck is NOT giving value (the paycheck and what the employee agrees to do to earn the paycheck is a contract. You need to go above and beyond to give value)
3. Can EE be used in personal relationships and how?
Yes. Significant others—continue to get to know them and learn about them throughout the relationship. We make the mistake of thinking we KNOW the ones closest to us and that we don’t have to work on it any longer.
Eg: Todd—things that used to be triggers and I had to tiptoe around, he’s worked on. If I still treat him like that, he gets angry because I’m not acknowledging his growth. Eg of wanting to meet with Patrick and his wife…
4. Can EE be used to build a better relationship with yourself?
This is the most important part of the whole concept—radiate outward. How?
--Get to know yourself. Intro or extro? Social gas tank? What gives you energy and what takes it away?
--Take time for you—whatever that means
--Help others get to know you
--Understand that you can be happy even when others aren’t—concept of tuning in to your own radio station
