When you’re in business, it’s easy to get caught up in the numbers. We live in an age where everything can be tracked, analyzed, and broken down, and communication — especially in the age of COVID — is now more digital than ever. Handshakes and friendly in-person meetings have fallen by the wayside, only to be replaced with email subject lines and Zoom calls.

Often, it’s easy to forget that there’s a person on the other side. But as all successful folks in business have learned one way or another, it’s that person on the other side that really matters. At the end of the day, business isn’t really about the numbers at all — it’s about people, and our relationships with them.

On today’s episode, host Richie Burke sits down with Brian McManus (Senior VP of Lending, First Federal Bank of Wisconsin), Jerry Couri (President, Couri Insurance Agency), and Adam Witkov (Partner, Michael Best & Friedrich LLP) to discuss the many ways in which their interpersonal relationships have shaped their business interactions over the years.

Tune in to this episode to gain insight on building relationships, hear inspiring stories about how personal connections have opened unexpected doors, and learn how to be someone others want to do business with.
