The best performers draw on many resources to build their skills and knowledge. One vital resource is personal and professional relationships that fuel growth and help them surpass current limits. How can you tell whether your new co-worker, friend, or family member will use their relationship to diminish or build your confidence? Will they resent your success or be honest and supportive?
