Listen Later

Strong relationships are not found, they're built.

In this episode, I talk with relationship expert and leadership educator Carole Robin, former Stanford Graduate School of Business faculty member and co-author of Connect: Building Exceptional Relationships with Family, Friends, and Colleagues. Together, we explore the practical skills that help people build trust, strengthen communication, and create meaningful relationships at work and in life.

We discuss:

- The difference between functional and exceptional relationships

- Why being willing to be seen and known builds trust
- How curiosity strengthens relationships
- The role of vulnerability in effective leadership
- How to use the 15% Rule to step outside your comfort zone
- One practical step to strengthen a relationship this week

 

This episode is for you if you:

- Want stronger relationships at work or at home

- Lead people and want to build trust
- Feel stuck in surface-level communication
- Want practical tools to build better relationships
- Believe connection is essential to success and well-being
