i want to talk about the interplay between communication and relationship first. What is the other where is the other person right now? What do they need? What do i need? How robust is our relationship? So that's the first prit. Then i need to take account of the fact that in most of my conversations, i want a com ate in order to build this relationship. If i have done that and i have built a strong relationship, i can communicate in so many more ways. I can share so much more about myself. And speaking of success, i wish you much of it with your new book. All the best. Thank you for listening to think fast, talk smart
Recognizing the importance of forging connections with others — and learning how to build those bonds in real time — is the focus of a course that’s been the most popular elective at Stanford GSB for decades: Interpersonal Dynamics. The iconic course has taught thousands of students and professionals what it means to have exceptional relationships and how to interact with others in a way that contributes to deeper, stronger connections.
In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, lecturer and podcast host Matt Abrahams sits down with David Bradford and Carole Robin, lecturer and former lecturer of iconic Stanford GSB class Interpersonal Dynamics to discuss their new book, Connect: Building Exceptional Relationships with Family, Friends, and Colleagues. Both lecturers in leadership, Bradford and Robin outline what they’ve been teaching in the classroom for a broader audience.
