Networking and Relationship Building
Everyone networks. It is not a new concept. The
problem is that most people don’t understand the
power of a network, how to build and maintain one,
or how to effectively do it. Yet, it is a skill that can
mean the difference between success or failure, making
or breaking a deal, getting a critical introduction,
landing a new opportunity or simply finding a
plumber in a time of need. To be successful at networking
one must first understand what it is and its
purpose. Unlike popular belief, the true purpose of a
network is not all about you but rather how to help
others get what they want and need. In this program

including how to make connections, discover your
contacts’ needs, and make the most of the relationships
you create.
