Relationship Matters

Season's Greetings (Episode 16)

A warm welcome from a very chilly and foggy Surrey. I wish you all joy at this special time of the year. If you do not celebrate Christmas, I hope that the fun and excitement around you touches your life. Special thoughts are for those who find this time of the year too stressful and are dreading the approach of December 25th.

This is the final podcast for 2006. I wish to thank you deeply for connecting with me this year. I have been privileged to communicate with thousands of people around the world and I look forward to more connections in 2007.  The Members Club will be launched in January. Watch and listen out for the details.

In the words of the great comedian, Dave Allen:

Alma Mater Endorses RMs Key Message!

I had two pieces of unsolicited mail last Thursday (30 Nov 06), both of which caught my eye for different reasons. The first was from Cranfield University, keeping in touch with its alumni. The opening sentence began: "In any venture, it is the relationships that matter; the people who make the difference." Has CU been keeping SUCH a close eye on its alumni?  Of course, they are absolutely right...............

The second piece of mail was of a totally different nature - a catalogue parading its Christmas wares for children. What was amusing to me was the big yellow box with red writing on the bottom left hand side of the cover, and the even bigger red box with the number 25 on it, proclaiming that this year, Christmas Day was falling on December 25th - an advance notice for the benefit of their many customers who are always taken unawares by its approach.  That's me! How is it that it always creeps up on me, silent but relentless? 

So, for the benefit of those of you who, like me, are always amazed that it's only a few days away - it's officially December 25th this year - so get Christmas shopping!!

I'm delighted to welcome my podcasting guru, Leesa Barnes, as the guest on today's Relationship Matters podcast. Leesa has shared her ideas on what are the key things required to build successful relationships. Whilst Leesa was talking primarily about building business relationships, her message is applicable to all types of personal connections, whether with friends, family or the occassional acquaintance in our lives.
