12th Annual

Women in Family Business Program

MARCH 6-9, 2008
At Miraval Life in Balance Resort
with
Leslie Dashew

 

We encourage you to bring other generations with you: the elders, the next generation and/or the late teens who are trying to figure out what their next steps will be. This will be an opportunity to explore transitions in family owned businesses and families of wealth over generations. And if it is only you contemplating the future and the past, you have a vital role in your family and will have the opportunity to explore what you can do with others.

Trust-Based Selling

by Charles H. Green

 

Using Customer Focus and Collaboration to Build Long-Term Relationships.

 

Trust-based relationships are the most powerful in business—yet trust is at an all-time low. Too many companies see “customer focus” as just another tool to increase competitive advantage. But customers don’t trust those who use them as means to their own ends. Ironically, the path to highest profitability lies in truly caring about customers, as opposed to treating them as just sources of profit. Trust-Based Selling describes this path.
