In this episode…
Are you looking to reach clients and establish lasting connections based on humanity and effective communication? What if there was a way to use a values-based tactic to improve lives?
Christina Harbridge’s experience as a worker in a call center opened her eyes to a radical idea — using emotionally-based tactics. She established an organization with the purpose of helping others because she knows what it feels like to be undervalued and underappreciated. Christina found a way to connect with clients on a deeper level and improve the quality of the lives around her.
On this episode of the Rising Entrepreneurs Podcast, John Corcoran is joined by Christina Harbridge, MisChief Executive Officer at Allegory Inc., to talk about strategies to connect emotionally with clients to create a healthier environment. Christina talks about building her debt collection agency on the foundation of compassion, fostering emotional literacy in the workplace, and how the Entrepreneurs’ Organization helped her achieve her potential.
