‘What is networking? It’s one of the top ten competencies for a leader (and for everyone). Networking is not what you know, or who you know, it’s who knows you. Networking is very specific, for specific reasons, with specific people – with a plan & goal. Building networking is about repetition, repeated actions and interactions.’ (IML notes) Have you ever avoided networking opportunities because you weren’t sure how to go about it? Consider your reasons for building a network of people “who know you”, pick those that will help you achieve your goals, then create a plan of action to interact with them when you have an opportunity.
