Why Business Relationship Coaching Matters Now More Than Ever
In the past, Texas business was driven by long-term handshakes and regional trust. But as markets became more competitive, remote, and transactional, the quality of relationships declined.
Today, professionals are expected to manage virtual teams, navigate shifting buyer expectations, and network without face-to-face time. Many organizations lack the internal training to teach strategic relationship-building.
Rodney is fixing that gap; one leader, one workshop at a time. And he’s doing it here, in the heart of Texas.
