Do you know anyone who has a perfect relationship?

When I say relationship, this doesn’t necessarily mean only loved ones but professional relationships as well.

No relationship, whether it be personal or professional, is perfect, none.

Perhaps in movies we can see this. The perfect relationship kicks off and then, the movie ends.

In general, a healthy relationship helps you feel safe, content, loved, respected, and able to be who you are.

Maybe you’ll get lucky and get some extra cuddling or a slice of cake.

On the other hand, toxic relationships leave you feeling exhausted, empty, and occasionally even distressed.

When we are happy and in a happy relationship, we are feeling great and happy to show off to all.

But what if our personal or professional relationships are toxic?

How exactly does the toxic relationship influence our behaviour and decision making?

A toxic relationship is the last thing you need when you're running a business, working with a partner, leading an organisation, or managing a team.

Relationships are very important, and being in a toxic one can cost you a lot of time and energy that you could be using far more effectively.

Every effective leader is aware that relationships between them with their peers or subordinates are essential to success.

It takes partnership, teamwork, support, cooperation, and unity for a business to succeed, a plan to move forward. Most of the important things we accomplish are usually done in partnership with others. Good relationships in business need effort, just as in life.

It's worthwhile too.

In the end, there can be no partnership without communication, leadership without respect, a team without trust, and no enterprise without value.

Be strong if you need to exit a bad relationship. Stay loyal to who you are and what you believe in, and always follow your heart.
