657 Debra Roberts : Making Relationships Rock

Business is all about people, and our success as entrepreneurs depends in large measure how effective we can be in building relationships that inspire trust.

Effective communications to inspire a team, negotiate a contract, or close the sale comes down to being an effective and empathetic listener – and building trust by being your authentic self.

We break it all down today on Wings with Debra Roberts, a conversation expert, and the creator of the Relationship Protocol.

Debra, EMDR-certified trauma consultant and licensed clinical social worker with wide ranging experience resolving challenging relationships in the home and workplace, works with businesses to examine existing communication patterns and teaches essential tools for effective communication to increase productivity, collaboration, engagement, and overall satisfaction. Her comprehensive approach also provides participants with the skills they need to defuse conflicts and create stronger, more positive relationships in all areas of their lives.

These days we’re often communicating on Zoom or via chat in Slack or other business software, so what can we learn about how to connect well with others and inspire trust?

  • Why trust breaks down in communication, and the cost to businesses when it does
  • How to avoid misunderstandings
  • Why the best communicators are very good listeners
  • How women can inspire and lead teams with empathy and intuition
  • How to be effective on Zoom
  • What stops people from having conversations and how to draw people out
  • And much more!
