Last Chance: Smarter Networking Training Starts Friday!

It’s not enough to network. We need results.

Have you ever had the feeling that your networking isn’t working? Join us for Smarter Networking Training and earn how to develop a sustainable, effective networking practice that works for your unique style and needs. Along the way, you’ll learn how to avoid some of the most common ways people undermine themselves while networking:

Mistake No. 1: Networking in ways that don’t feel authentic

It’s a common myth that there is only one correct way to network. But that “one correct way” is based on a model that works well for extroverts. No wonder so many of us feel unsuccessful!

Yet introverts can succeed as well. It’s simply a matter of employing different tactics. The key is finding the ways that work for you. If you don’t, you’re likely to become cranky and less than your best. You probably won’t meet your expectations and will get discouraged.

Mistake No. 2: Forgetting that networking is a two-way street

Typical networking efforts focus on meeting your own needs. How often are you pro-actively sharing information and resources with others? If you only contact people when you have a specific need, consider adopting ways to share valuable items on a regular basis. Become known for having unique areas of expertise.

Mistake No. 3: Networking only for today

A common trap is limiting your network to people who can help you in your current position. It’s good to focus on daily operations, but often important information gets neglected. What’s happening in your environment that affects your work? Where do you want to be five years from now? A better approach is to nurture the relationships you need today and tomorrow so you’re not stuck when change happens.
