Networking - You can only pull out what you put in! Today I am thinking back to a dicussion with friend and fellow career strategist Jens Kleis Frederiksen where he very acurately put it to me that networking is like a bank, and that you can only pull out what you put in. It may seem transactional, however networking, whether you are actively seeking career change or working towards your longer term career goal, requires continual investment. Building and nurturing your network will allow you to tap into those elusive unadvertised opportunities. The purpose of networking is both to gather information and to make sure people know what you offer and what you seek. Networking is about building trust. When people trust you, they will help you. Building trust takes time so be patient, be respectful, apply empathy and follow some guidelines below. 1. Identify what you want. Clearly define the future direction of your career. 2. Map the people in your network, to identify those who are most relevant and open to engage. 3. Before you start networking, take a critical look at your social media profiles. 4. Practice your networking skills with someone who can provide honest and constructive feedback. Networking requires preparation and practice. Beware the idle chit-chat when attending conferences and networking events. 5. Finally, ask for advice and not a job! Show interest and be yourself (networking is not a job interview!) and be sure to nurture your network. Acknowledge your own competencies and remember that a networking conversation is a meeting of equals with the aim to exchange ideas and mutual interests. #careerdevelopment #careeradvice #networking #executivesearch
