Tanya Boyd on Why Curiosity Is the Most Underused Client Retention Strategy

from The Human Connection Podcast

"Life is this long bridge where you try not to burn the bridges — and maybe create new ones that not only you can cross, but that someone else can too." — Tanya BoydTanya Boyd has built a career that most people would need a spreadsheet to explain — mortgage origination, disaster recovery, healthcare, government, IT, marketing, and now keynote speaking and project leadership. The through line? Curiosity. Not the checkbox kind. The kind that asks real questions, actually listens to the answers, and builds relationships strong enough to carry you from one chapter of your life to the next.In this conversation, Tanya and Karl dig into why curiosity is one of the most undervalued leadership tools in business — and why most organizations are accidentally stamping it out of the people they need it from most.What you'll take away from this episode:Why curiosity is the #1 relationship-building skill leaders aren't investing in — and how to get it backHow genuine interest in your team unlocks performance that no incentive program can replicateThe "doctor analogy" that reframes curiosity from nosiness to professional necessityWhy transactional business is hitting a wall — and what relationship-driven companies are doing differentlyHow one client relationship redirected Tanya's entire career trajectory (and what that means for how you treat your clients today)The bridge metaphor for business relationships: building paths others can cross too#H2H #RelationshipDrivenGrowth #B2BRelationships #StartupLeadership #ClientRetention===You can connect with Tanya Boyd here:Project Success Academy: https://projectsuccessacademy.com/Corbeau Tech: https://corbeautech.com/PURE Management Alliance: https://bit.ly/3CbObmITanya Boyd Photography: http://www.tanyaboydphotography.comYou can connect with Karl Pontau here:www.vouchedconnections.comwww.thehumanconnectionpodcast.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/kpontauhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUbf_bDWwB9KVrFn5Sj3u2w?sub_confirmation=1Please like, subscribe, and share this episode with somebody you care about!
