Reflections on Networking
By Ford R. Myers
President of Career Potential, LLC
WHAT IS NETWORKING?
- Networking is the currency of career success
- A conversation with business intent
- Making a connection that may bring something else about
- Building relationships
- Primarily an “influence mechanism”
- The active use and development of contacts for individual and professional development
- The creation of an ever-expanding group of people who know about you, your skill-set and the ways in which your talents make a positive contribution
Networking is the new name for conversations, developing acquaintances, increasing awareness in others about who we are and what our skills are. You have to “put yourself out there,” so there’s a risk. But with risk, there’s also potential reward.
From a business standpoint, it’s time to start connecting personally. There needs to be mutual interest as well. So on one hand there’s the continuum of relationship-building networking; and on the other hand, there’s the short-term transaction.

Career-Coach-on-CallSM
“Urgent Care” For Your Career

What Clients Are Saying About Career Potential
[quote cite=”B. Sokolow, Sales and Business Development Professional” class=”cite-long”]I followed your networking script to the letter and was able to get introduced to the CEO of a local manufacturer, to get a face-to-face meeting. My meeting lasted two-and-a-half hours, and went so well that the CEO called me five minutes after I left to tell me they were going to make me an offer. I used your negotiation training as well, and have happily just accepted a new position with a 35% salary increase. I couldn’t be more thrilled, and just wanted to say thank you. The six-month program I did with you prepared me perfectly to manifest the career evolution I imagined![/quote]
