According to Carole Robin, a teacher of interpersonal skills to Stanford University MBA students, some of the ways to enhance our relationships are as follows;

(excerpt from Forbes article, "Invigorate your relationships by learning to connect".

The aim is for both parties to -

• Be vulnerable and more fully ourselves without needing to spin an image and pretend we are something we aren't 

• Be honest with each other and trust our disclosures won't be used against us.

• Raise disagreements/conflicts, and resolve them in a way that further strengthens our relationship.

• Commit to each other's growth and development
