Key take-aways of this session:
- Increase awareness of what underpins a reputation for commerciality.
- An opportunity to evaluate your approach and identify specific strategies that will enhance the commerciality of your relationships.
- And a practical model that provides you with a structured approach to developing relationships that showcase your commerciality.
