The Profit of Kindness: How to Influence Others, Establish Trust, and Build Lasting Business Relationships

by Jill Lublin

Overview

When kindness becomes your primary goal, everything changes: how you look at life, what you get from it, and how others interact with and relate to you.

The Profit of Kindness will help you master the art of building trusting, long-lasting relationships through open, nonadversarial interchanges that result in mutually beneficial outcomes. A basic adjustment in attitude and approach can substantially improve virtually every facet of your life. Each chapter provides specific examples for improving skills such as communication, building integrity, team work, influencing others, and more.

In order to connect with new clients or future business partners and transform your potential into success, you need to establish trust and build strong relationships. The key is to focus more on giving and working with others rather than simply on "winning." Because doing so is guaranteed to help you actually win.

The Profit of Kindness is a practical guide that teaches you how to connect with others using the global asset known as kindness.

You will learn:

Kindness does not mean weakness.

Kindness can help you stay competitive, anticipate pitfalls, and stay one step ahead of your rivals.

Success, achieved through kindness, can indeed be yours.
