Networking is an art to make your connections with other by using your way of talk and other relationship building skills. It is the way or process meeting with others for sharing the information for making professional and social contacts. No matter in what profession you are skill of networking it accelerates the process of success. It is not just helps you to improve the individual skills but also boost the power of your organization. The importance of networking which has always been debatable has now upsurge with lot of new arguments in favor and against it thus it has become even more controversial but it is clear that networking is an instrumental indeed. In this essay where I find the importance of networking for personal growth and I’m going to describe what is I am doing to improve my own networks. As I’m working in professionally and got a opportunity to meet new people and got a chance to have good conversation but I found that because of the few hurdles’ like having a different accent I need to improve my networking skills for that I’m doing few things which are discussed down there.
This is the first thing which is I’m trying to improve in myself which is undoubtedly important. Sometime I don’t know where to start when I meet the person or some time lot of other stuff going in my mind I speak in the way which I’m not spouse to. Although I truly believe there’s an art and science to networking and building authentic relationships, I’m going to distill what I’ve learned over the past few years.
The best networking comes from genuine relationships, not a business card exchange. No matter whom you’re trying to build a relationship with, treating that person as a friend rather than a business contact will take you much further with the relationship. So, think about how you would approach a potential friend. Find something you have in common with, keep it light, make jokes, and above all, show that you care
Building a human connection is all about how to make connection when you are talking with someone to make a real network through asking them the right questions which make them feel more comfortable with you in which they find themselves interested and love to talk about it. I have to ask insightful questions it is going in the same way ask better questions receive better answer. By asking better questions you just don’t put yourself in someones mind who thinks differently but another person also find that it is value ale to talk you about in future.
I’m going to taking a close look on the network and contact I already have to build it up more stronger and better. I found that it is not just important to make the new contact I must have to follow up with my previous contacts.
Exit quickly from the conversation in which you don’t find yourself comfortable or out of your joiner but maintain the pace and professionalism.
All in all, it can be concluded that my focus is to make the improvement in myself to make my network more stronger and better by adding some art in it, finding a reference is not enough if you don’t know how to change it in valuable relation.
