Ep64 What leaders get wrong about connection and culture – Julia Palmer

We hear so much about how emotional intelligence is essential for leadership. But, often overlooked is the game-changing power of relationship intelligence (RQ). Drawing from her own sales background and 20 years of experience coaching non-sales professionals, relational strategist Julia Palmer, CEO of Relatus, Julia reveals why RQ is the missing link in leadership, team dynamics and business growth. 

Forget superficial networking and transactional exchanges. Julia shares how building authentic, strategic relationships can drive revenue, boost collaboration, and transform workplace culture. From improving psychological safety to retaining top talent, she explains how organisations with high RQ outperform those stuck in outdated, hierarchical models. You’ll learn how to spot low RQ in your business, how to fix it, and why relational intelligence isn’t a “soft skill” – it’s a future skill.
