Key Takeaways: Leaders need to be the example of relationship building, starting with how they build relationships with the people they lead. Sales professionals also have a responsibility, regardless of how they are led, to show up as their best for their customers.

The importance of not settling for transactional relationships, but rather seeking to solve problems and help customers achieve their goals is emphasized.
