Here's how you can establish lasting client relationships through strategic thinking.

Clients equal profit for businesses providing services, but in their eyes, we mean the world to them, especially in times of need. Respecting their vulnerabilities, embracing different cultures, building confidence and offering guidance allow you to know them better than they know themselves. A satisfied customer is always a happy customer.

I will prefer to.understand needs mad will try finding solutions. As unless we don't know the needs we can't find better options towards solutions.

Normally as consultants and that to senior once believe they know everything.. however many times problems are different for different set of customers and always there is some uniqueness in each case. Always listen completely from customer, ask what they want, what is their problem and then share your views, this will help creating a correct SOW/Scope in ease case against dissatisfaction at end.

Establishing a long lasting client relationships through strategic thinking also known as thoughtful marketing starts by examining my ability to understand and meet the client’s targeted need. This starts with scrutiny of my personal character and skill based ability to meet the clients well understood needs. Character and skill based service is a foundation that can never be ignored as written in Proverbs 22:29 Do you see someone skilled in their work? They will serve before kings; they will not serve before officials of low rank. Then initiate a brainstorming session with the client for an understanding on how and what is desired. From experience clients care more about their needs met than what you know or have.

Utilizar LinkedIn para compartir contenido valioso y demostrar la experiencia en el sector. Personalmente, he visto cómo la consistencia en la entrega de resultados y la honestidad en la comunicación han fortalecido la confianza con mis clientes.

It is an ongoing process that requires consistent effort, integrity, and a genuine commitment to the well-being of employees, customers, and stakeholders. By prioritizing trust, organizations can create a solid foundation for long-term success and positive relationships.

Maintaining open and clear communication with the client is the key. This includes active listening, asking relevant questions, and responding to their queries as consistently as possible.

Most importantly, from DEI perspective, the consultant must approach each case with an unbiased viewpoint.

Resulta desde mi perspectiva un factor importantísimo para plantear virtudes y soluciones en los casos que así corresponda, no se puede lograr una comunicación asertiva y por ende efectiva sino se tiene la claridad necesaria, por ello una sugerencia es priorizar los puntos que se están tratando.

Non-Judgmental Observation: Practice observing the situation without immediately judging it. This allows you to see the conflict more objectively and consider multiple perspectives. Because your most memorable days await you.

En mi experiencia. No solo se trata de vender productos o servicios, sino de ofrecer soluciones que aborden los problemas específicos de tus clientes. Utiliza análisis predictivos y datos de comportamiento para anticipar las necesidades futuras de los clientes. En mi trayectoria, siempre he priorizado la creación de soluciones personalizadas que no solo resuelvan los problemas actuales, sino que también preparen a mis clientes para desafíos futuros. Esto ha sido clave para establecerme como un socio estratégico en lugar de un simple proveedor.

Considero que las soluciones deben estar encaminadas a mantener la confianza del cliente partiendo de la honestidad en el reconocimiento de los errores, ( en caso de haberlos) y del respeto hacia el cliente y la empresa, por ello una buena capacitación para los miembros de los equipos de trabajo es fundamental, considerar varios escenarios basados en el ganar - ganar, es la base de muchas soluciones.

Active Listening: Use Mindfulness to truly listen to the other party without interrupting or formulate your response. This can lead to better understanding and more effective communications. Because your most memorable days await you.

O cliente precisa ver no processo as orientações dele sendo seguidas em paralelo às soluções propostas por nós, auxiliando assim o sucesso do resultado esperado e na manutenção do relacionamento com ele.

Emotional Regulation: Mindfulness can help you recognize and manage strong emotions, preventing them from escalating the conflict. Because your most memorable days await you.

A committed consultant should follow up promptly after resolving the conflict to ensure that your solutions have actually worked for the client. Be empathetic towards the client for all the experiences that the client is going through due to the conflict. It is important to ensure that the client is satisfied with your work. So, it is important to seek feedback at regular intervals. This also makes the client feel that you are concerned and also want to improve yourself, professionally, if required. Monitor the situation closely and document the situation, the main problem, and your solutions so that you learn from your experiences and apply them towards solving future cases.

Lasting client relationships depend on how much we are intending to invest and by investment we mean how much clients skin is in the game. The strategic thinking helps us to understand the bigger picture. Strategically how can the other benefit from the plans is critical. The key stakeholders have their skin in it and therefore it is a great way of making them realise what are they investing into it . The rapport building happens as they are aware of what all they will be getting on return of what they have invested into. This will help in building transparency and authenticity while dealing with the clients which is going to go a long way.

Establecer relaciones duraderas, requiere un enfoque estratégico y continuo. Utilizar la tecnología de IA para obtener insights valiosos y la plataforma de LinkedIn para construir y mantener conexiones significativas. En mi experiencia, he aprendido que una combinación de empatía, flexibilidad, y proactividad es clave para mantener relaciones duraderas. La atención a los detalles y la capacidad de ofrecer valor consistentemente son fundamentales. Establecer relaciones requiere un enfoque holístico que combine comprensión y confianza. En mi experiencia, aplicar estas estrategias de manera consistente ha llevado a la creación de relaciones sólidas y duraderas con mis clientes, posicionándome como un socio valioso en su éxito continuo.

All of these suggestions are excellent. I think that it's important to understand that there are two levels of strategic planning. One is practical or technical, and the other is ethical. There is what works, and there is what is right. When the two coincide you have a winning and good formula. Good ethics is good business, and even if it were not, it is essential to any successful partnership. It's very important to identify your preferences and those of the individuals with whom you work. Ethics are values in action and values are preferences regarding perceptions about people, outcomes and instrumentalities. It is very important to sort those out before and as you proceed. In my experience people respond well to good intentions.
