It’s not what you know, it’s who you know…
(well, that’s partially true)
Relationship building can be deceptively complex, wouldn’t you agree?
As professionals, building relationships and maintaining a network of internal and external contacts, is key to business success.
Professional networking is essential and key to connecting with people from all walks of life.
Not everyone is a natural when it comes to networking. In fact, it can be quite overwhelming and get a bit much for some people, especially if you have no experience and no idea where to start and how to go about it.
Networking is a skill, it requires certain qualities, certain competencies to be able to network and do it effectively.
If you are not a ‘natural’, these competencies can be learned, like any other skill.
There are a number of skills that you’ll need for successful networking. It makes good business sense to network and have a wide network of people you can connect with, for business or simply, for a chat.
👉Learn how to network effectively.
👉Get yourself out there.
👉Get in front of people.
👉Build your profile.
👉Build your credibility, trust and rapport.
👉Build strategic relationships.
👉Collaborate. Exchange ideas.
You don’t have to do it alone. Doing it alone makes no sense.
I trust this has been useful and that it brings some value and insights and maybe leads to some action and change around this topic for you.
