People are not islands. People are Social beings who need to connect and communicate. In other words, people need to relate to each other. Some of the most important relationships are that of Parent-child, husband-wife, siblings, friends or romantic partners.

However, we also have professional relationships between vendor and company; within a team; across teams; company to company and boss to subordinate. Through this column we will endeavour to cover as many of the relationships as possible.

15 Ways to Know You Are In A Healthy Relationship

While there are many different types of relationships, the principles that govern them are similar. There is an interdependence, or a reciprocity that exists in all relationships. There is an expectation, a desire and a template that we expect.

However, our template may not match the template of expectation of the other person. So, here are some of the issues that we will cover in the first few articles and videos on this section:

• How do we establish relationships?
  
• How do we maintain them?
  
• How do we get the best from them?
  
• What are the best mechanisms to address conflict?
  
• Is there a way to get out of a toxic relationship?

The objective of these articles is to highlight the importance of Relationships and how they shape and determine our lives. How we succeed or how we fail, can, in some way, be related or linked to a relationship issue. It is important to understand these issues and to know how to get the best from the tenets that govern relationships.
