Today I read something that made me cringe. From another consultant's column was the suggestion to wake up every morning asking, "Who am I going to be introduce myself to today."Why the yucky feeling?
While I'm sure his advice didn't mean this, I sort of got the picture of a networker going out and handing out his cards willy-nilly to make sure he was introduced to newbies. The old deal the deck routine.
Instead, I'd like th
e advice to be, "Who are you going to introduce to someone today?"
e advice to be, "Who are you going to introduce to someone today?"I'm sure you get the slight difference. Helping others first is the hallmark of a great networker....in my opinion, of course!
What's your take?
