Stakeholders are far more likely to support your project when they feel a genuine connection with you. But how do you build rapport when most of your working relationships happen through a screen and you may never meet your stakeholders in person? And how do you do it authentically? Nobody likes a greasy, transactional salesperson, and you need your stakeholders for the long haul. In this session, you’ll learn practical ways to build rapport quickly in virtual and hybrid settings, earn trust through how you follow up and follow through, and turn early connection into shared ownership of project outcomes.
