Some potential challenges in improving key professional relationships include lack of communication, misunderstanding, lack of trust, and differing goals or objectives. These can be overcome by improving communication skills, seeking to understand the other person's perspective, building trust through consistency and reliability, and aligning goals and objectives through negotiation and compromise.

Question was asked on:

To develop your connecting goals, look at where power resides in your organization. Ask yourself: who has control over my professional future? Your boss does, but often, a decision to promote you doesn't come solely from that person. Identify who else has influence and who are the people your boss listens to the most. "Your goal for the year should be to improve each key relationship by a color; i.e., turning red relationships yellow, and yellow relationships green," Clark recommends.
