The Importance of a Network
At the heart of any successful career, business or personal achievement there is a network of people who were there to help. Networking is not about glad-handing or exchanging business cards but meaningful relationships that one builds over time. Meeting people is easy, maintaining a relationship requires work. A network is a living organism that needs to be nurtured and cared for.
Utilizing a network is not just about finding a job or landing a deal, but can also help in meeting a future spouse, finding a good a restaurant or helping a friend through a tough time. It must be a dynamic relationship where both parties can benefit and feel supported. This is not a transaction - most people want to help. In the end they know that we’re successful with the support of others.
We can help because we know what a network can be.
