Rules to Building Superior Relationships

Finally, businesses are starting to understand that people and their relationships are critical to their success. In a relationship-based business, the agreement between two or more parties assumes trade-offs between cost, risk, skills, labor, and rewards. This agreement should outline how the involved parties will treat each other. The agreement must address the character, quality, and integrity of the relationship.

The agreement isn’t just a set of expectations that the parties negotiate. It’s a set of rights and obligations that people have in the relationship. In a relationship-based corporation, the character and quality of their relationships ensure the success of the business, and speed is an outgrowth of those trust-based relationships.

People take care of what they own. To value the relationship, people must see the benefit. If they “own” the relationship, they will implement what is necessary well. This is a journey requiring character, will and discipline. Look at it this way. Someone have to be responsible for the implementation of the relationship management, acceptance, and enforcement. We must define it mutually and manage it for efficiency. It matures from learning. It is not static.

If a corporation remove the barriers of their old transactional-based system and culture it could leverage their relationships to produce more output faster. It’s essential that everyone involved is on board and know exactly what is going on, so when it’s time to perform, the response is instant. An instant response depends upon shared commitment, a set of common rules about how the relationship will work. A company can not afford to be misaligned or ill prepared.

One last comment:
Traditionally, relationships have not been a win-win. There always seems that theirs a party that tries to take advantage of relationships, focusing only how much they suck out to the relationship and how fast.

Instead, you need help your relationship by enabling them to become more profitable, with incentive that adds to your strategic objective. You do this by creating a community for your relationships to grow. The community must be place where both parties can safely and freely express ideas, complaints, and ways to improve the relationship without backlash.
