The Power of Networking - It's not all about YOU!
🚪Networking is a valuable professional skill that can help advance one's career in meaningful ways. Connecting and building relationships with others in one's industry or field provides opportunities to collaborate, assist one another, stay informed of new developments and openings, and support each other's work. When done respectfully and authentically, networking helps foster goodwill and can open doors that otherwise may have remained closed.
👏🏼Rather than view it as an uncomfortable obligation or a way to primarily promote oneself, it is best to approach networking with an attitude of giving first. Reach out to others not just to request assistance but to provide insight, introduce people who may benefit from meeting each other, share information of interest without expecting anything in return. This builds trust over time, as people come to see one as reliable and helpful rather than self-serving. Quality connections formed through genuine engagement and showing interest in how one can help others will often lead to unforeseen advantages down the road.
💪🏽While networking requires effort, the rewards can be highly valuable for career progression as well as personal and professional fulfillment. Maintaining important relationships takes ongoing care and communication. When done right, networking elevates all participants and strengthens the connections between people.
