Welcome to episode 160. 

We’re diving into one of the most important topics in client relationships: trust, with Charles H. Green - an author, speaker and world expert on trust-based relationships and sales in complex businesses. Founder and  former CEO of Trusted Advisor Associates, he is author of Trust-based Selling, and co-author of The Trusted Advisor and the Trusted Advisor Fieldbook.  Charles spent 20 years in management consulting. He has a BA in philosophy (Columbia), and an MBA (Harvard).  

We explore what really drives trustworthiness, why listening is your most powerful tool as an account manager, how to build credibility without overcompensating, and why authentic relationships will only become more valuable in an AI-driven world.

There are some brilliant, practical insights in this one. My biggest takeaways? Trust is built far beyond credentials, listening is your superpower, and in a world of AI and automation, genuine human connection is only becoming more valuable.
