Assessing the fabric of the current working relationship provides a basis from which the relationship can grow and develop. As the working relationships unfold we recommend both parties complete a thorough assessment of the quality of the relationship (using mutually agreed upon criteria) then dialogue about their individual perceptions.

Testing perceptions and reading reality truthfully, sets forth a clear understanding of where the working relationship is currently and helps to define the future relationship potential. As you audit the relationships consider the degree to which trust is present between the parties.
