The insights are especially useful for service providers, consultants and advisors who serve internal or external clients.

• The 3 fears that hinder client trust and loyalty: Fear of losing the business, Fear of being embarrassed, and Fear of feeling inferior.

• Specific strategies and practices to overcome each of the 3 fears, including how to: show your sincerity in building a long-term relationship, serve your clients’ interests even if it means risks/effort on your part, have the courage to speak up or point out hard truths, and be willing to shoulder your clients’  burdens and share their passions/struggles.
