The Power of connection and networking.

Food for thought by Simon Sinek. It got me reflecting on what the true value of networking is. The true value of networking = how many people we can introduce to others to support their goals or aspirations + the value we add to the lives of others + the impact we make in communities or society (whether small or big). What matters is using our network to add value or influence positive change. Try the N.E.T. strategy: 💡 N - Find a Need. 💡 E - Express yourself authentically. Build genuine connections. 💡 T - Offer a Token or add value. Watch my TEDx talk for more insights on the N.E.T.: https://lnkd.in/ga6HbduW ______ 💡 What else might you add to the true value of networking? or how have you redefined networking? Keen to hear your thoughts or reflections. #Networking #ThePowerOfAuthenticConnections #FridayReflections #LeadershipDevelopment

🙏 Networking is about giving… Networking isn't about collecting connections or growing a network to receive. The value of networking is about contributing, creating a community, building meaningful relationships, and helping others to grow... How can you help your network to network? · Introduce connections with a personalized message · Share job posts · Offer guidance and support · Celebrate accomplishments · Focus on the journey, not the destination · Recommend helpful resources · Become a mentor · Support networking events · Stay in touch with your connections - say hello 👋 · Listen and be there to support 🌱 Building a community takes time. It won't happen overnight, but if you nurture your connections and stay in touch, those relationships will grow. #careers #networking #gratitude #motivation #community #skills

"This insight has been incredibly enlightening for me. Recognizing the importance of meaningful connections over sheer quantity has been a profound learning experience. Shifting my focus to nurturing genuine relationships has not only enriched my professional approach but has also brought about a deeper sense of fulfillment. It's truly a transformative lesson that's shaping my journey in a remarkable way." #networking #networkingrevolution #buildingrelationships

Are you leveraging the power of a network to ensure your success? The statement made by Simon Sinek so admirably captured the essence of networking. It emphasizes the fact that networking is not just about how many people we meet, but how many people we genuinely connect and build a genuine relationship. It's not about quantity but quality. Networking is building genuine mutually beneficial relationships. Building genuine relationships requires time, effort and commitment. Networking is not about just connecting people. It's about connecting people with people, people with ideas, and people with opportunities. Pulling a good network together takes effort, sincerity and time. To summarise, why do we need to network? Short answer : 1 Resources for Business Deals, Alliances, Jobs. 2. Safety net in a rapidly changing business world. 3. Less time to be an expert. Networking helps you to meet people at all professional levels. Networking boosts your professional confidence. Networking has been cited as the number one unwritten rule of success in business. Last but not the least, networking contributes to your social well-being among many other benefits. Hence, leverage the power of networking to ensure your success. #networkinggoals #networkinaction #socialsaturdaysquad Simon Sinek's The Optimism Company

This comment has so much truth to it. It is the heart of what BNI chapters offer to people seeking to grow their network. If you are not familiar with BNI, reach out to me.

As I excitedly prepare to spend the day with many marketers in London, this resonates. A key component of my role is, and will always be, to create the channels, platforms, and opportunities for my customers to connect, grow, and learn from one another. If I am not helping you succeed and celebrating your success, I am not delivering on my goals and promise. #peoplebeforeprofessionals #customerledgrowth #customerexperience #customerengagement
