Six Principles to Network Like a Pro
When Malcolm Gladwell changed the business vernacular with the release of – The Tipping Point – the power of a connector was heightened to epic awareness. This, Gladwell referenced, was the “law of the few” and the connector was that rare individual with ‘a special gift for bringing the world together.’ It turns out that each of us is likely surround by a connector; sadly though, few of us pause long enough to take notice, acknowledge or learn from them. It’s hardly difficult to spot one – she’s likely the one person you know who’s insanely curious about those around her; she’s smart, confident, altruistic, and has an extraordinary knack for making friends and acquaintances.
