- Don't misconstrue networking to be a sales plan.
- Don't be blinded by goals, only guided by them.
- Don't be quick to make judgements about people you meet, today's tin could be tomorrows gold.
- Don't hand out your business cards willy nilly to people you haven't had a conversation with, you will look pushy, desperate or (horrors!) both.

Networking and its effective use in business in the 21st century |
|
Published in Viewpoint issue No. 29 Spring 2002
In the current economic downturn, networking is something that more businesses are turning to in an effort to expand (or even maintain) their business, their training skills or to minimize research costs.
In the heyday of the Celtic Tiger, many companies just sat back and waited for the phone to ring, but now the phones have stopped ringing and pro-activity is required. We need to get out there, meet people and expand our circle of contacts.
Networking is the art of connecting with people on a personal level and using that contact to benefit you, your family friends and business connections.

What is Networking?
We've all seen it - the person who commands the room at a function. Handshakes, nods and warm greetings abound. They seem to know everyone! How do they do it?
More often that not, it can all be down to effective networking, the art of discovering and using connections between people. We all know other people so we all have a network. However effective networking means moving outside our own immediate network and tapping into new networks, perhaps far beyond the scope of our own.
