The Authentic Networking System consists of three components: Acceptance, The Process, and Follow Up. Sounds simple I know, but there is more to it. Each of the components can be broken down into pieces. Each of the pieces are just as important as each component itself.
The system needs all the components. Without all three, networking won’t be successful or at least it won’t be sustainable. As we meet people it won’t always be rainbows, unicorns, and sunshine. There will be times when relationships struggle, meeting new people is uncomfortable, or events don’t go as planned. Having a system in place helps us figure out what can be done differently so that we can keep the faith and continue to grow or cultivate our connections.
This is all a part of the Authentic Networking System. Learn more about Authentic Networking at the Professional Networking Workshop on Nov 6th. If you are attending a networking event in the next week, these workshops provide networking practice, information, and resources. Learn and reinforce concepts, ideas, and processes that make networking more comfortable and effective. Workshop Info
