Diplomacy is more important then ever in building trusted relationships whether representing your country, your business, or your personal brand.
Diplomacy is the art of building and managing trusted communication and social relationships.
In this online and increasingly transparent social business world, who would respect, support, and trust a diplomat who does not have a reputation for keeping commitments and is perceived positively by other leaders, professionals, brand advocates, etc.
Relationship Capital (RC) is the open standard for accounting for kept-commitments and positive perceptions. RC is accounted for by credits and debits. Keep a commitment and receive a credit to your RC account from the person you kept the commitment to.
Relationship Capital (RC) capture and measurement makes this asset more tangible and trusted.
As a “diplomat” in this interconnected social business world you must be consistently accountable, responsible, supportive, respectful, and trustworthy to earn RC.
Relationship Capital (RC) is your “Passport Identification” of a trusted reputation!
