Inside the ring
The business of business happens inside a ring. Inside that ring, anything goes providing that it is in the interests of the business. There are behaviours, there are rules, and there are norms that are appropriate.Then there is business outside the ring. This may be where we take clients out to shows, maybe to extravagant Cup Finals or even Oscar ceremonies.
But what is really going on here?
Are we really saying, “please keep booking me as your consultant” (when perhaps the client would be better off with someone else)
It’s not an easy call, but when relationships generate an agenda that is demonstrably outside the ring……..
Then that’s the time to call a halt.
