How to Build a Successful Partnership
The Gallup Organization finds that positive relationships start as effective collaborations. Whether between business partners, friends or spouses, each depends on a set of core values to be productive. Without them, the partnership is like a car without wheels; it goes nowhere.
See if you agree with the characteristics needed for a successful partnership:
- Trust – It is the cornerstone of every relationship. People want to have confidence in your integrity, skill and sincerity. Clients who trust their agent will stay with them rather than shopping around.
- An Open Exchange of Ideas – Collaboration depends on sharing and respecting your partner’s opinions. Receiving feedback from classic clients helps you stay current on market trends.
- Communication – Listening is essential for effective communication. Appreciating each other’s perspective is important. Classic owners love to talk cars!
- Respect – How you treat someone shows how much you value their input. You can respect a team member without agreeing with his or her opinions. By encouraging them to share their opinions, ideas and advice, you earn their respect.
- Reliability – If you always follow through on what you say you are going to do, people recognize that you are dependable. When a collector car owner experiences a devasting loss, they want to know they can count on you, their agent.
