Everywhere you go…there’s somebody new to learn to know! The great thing is that networking is a “soft skill” that can be learned by anyone. Bring business cards to an event or IAAP meeting, and set a goal to get or give a certain number before or after the meeting. How often have you heard that stated?

Part of what makes it such a great personal development program is that speakers are always bringing in excellent ideas for others to learn from. The GAINS model (which Leslie contributed to the best-selling book, Business by Referral ) is truly one of the most powerful and effective methods I’ve encountered for building relationships.

We often find ourselves in situations involving networking as a result of work-related travel for conferences, trade fairs or business meetings. However, if you always try to get out of networking events or fail to engage in discussions and socialising you’re likely to miss out on some great business opportunities.

Take classes, read a book, read current events about new trends that are happening in your field. Learn from them and build on your weaknesses to make them into strengths. If someone is being negative with you, ask them why they are raising their voice or why they are being pessimistic. Remember, we are all human and we make mistakes.

What do they learn the hard way? Are these social things, business things, language things. What do people struggle with, or what have they had to learn the hard way? My biggest was learning a new language again, since Ive lived in Switzerland as well. What trips people up? What puzzles people?

People have to learn that they are not the only ones that need things to get done quickly. Apparently, everyone comes to me all at the same time. Then there are times when I am bored out of my mind and start either asking others for work or updating the company database.

Our lives are increasingly hectic and we are bombarded by so much stuff on a daily basis that learning to be productive, so as to handle the stresses of modern life, is a wise move. When you take into account the current business attitude of doing more with less (all for profits, profits and more profits!)

OCTOBER 18, 2008

Networking at a conference does little good if you never speak with the person after the event. Ask for business cards and have a stack of business cards for yourself at hand as well. I choose to tell stories that I know others can relate to and maybe even learn from listening. Give before you get.

Share what you have learned with your boss. Putting the asterisk makes sure it is first on my list. There are many other things you can do with rules so take the time to check them out and feel your way around. It will be worth the effort. Most executives I know want the help and this would be a great way of organizing them.

When I was a graduate student, I was mildly surprised to learn that a thesis statement could expand into an entire thesis. I take my best content and turn it into workshops and allow people to play with and I hope learn from the ideas. If I didn't learn the art of repurposing content, I'd be in trouble!
