Presentation

Interpersonal Competence - Connect with Others

Learning to build trust and rapport helps to strengthen workplace bonds. These bonds are essential for teams to work harder together and deliver meaningful results. Being a part of a culture where trust is present benefits everyone because productivity is higher, and the work itself becomes more satisfying and rewarding.

We will explore the impact on our professional development when we apply Dale Carnegie’s Principles for building trust and rapport. These nine principles form the basis for establishing respectful and understanding professional relationships. Trust is the foundation of all successful professional relationships. When we trust our colleagues, we have rapport, we are more productive, and we experience a greater degree of job satisfaction. Most of us work in settings where our managers have high expectations of us and our organizations require that we do more, better, faster, with less. The best way to meet those challenges is through creating strong teams, supportive relationships, and a cooperative work environment. Beginning with establishing trust and rapport, we can develop relationships that will enable us to meet our career goals.
