Building Relationships

NEW!

In Volume 9 of the series, this brief, easy-to-read booklet provides team leaders and managers with a publication that can help them develop effective relationships with key stakeholders such as customers, suppliers, support groups, management and regulators. This small (5" x 8") booklet is about 30 pages long but it is packed with clear explanations, useful exercises, assessment tools and solid tips for developing a sound networking plan for your team.
