Understand What People<br />
Want (and that’s you too)<br />
We are all human animals and basically<br />
want the same thing. When we enter<br />
a new relationship (networking) we<br />
will ask… What can this person do for<br />
me? Can they entertain me? Can they<br />
help me get done what I want to get<br />
done? Do I feel at home and attracted to<br />
them? Can I get some kind of intimacy?<br />
It’s what they are looking for. It’s what<br />
you are looking for too. Don’t take it<br />
personally if people don’t respond to<br />
your overtures – not everyone likes the<br />
same kind of music, Star Trek quotes,<br />
arthouse movies, strong cheese etc…<br />
Don’t take it too seriously<br />
Smile and make friends. It’s not a<br />
competition. Successful and powerful<br />
networking is just about are chatting,<br />
meeting new friends and having you fun.<br />
If someone is rude, they are probably<br />
insecure, bluffing it, tired and just<br />
generally being human. Let it go.<br />
Finally, remember we are<br />
all in this game together<br />
The industry grows the more we<br />
collaborate and help each other. Offer<br />
help and you will receive it. Be humble<br />
and you will be rewarded with genuine<br />
relationships. Be bold and courageous<br />
and you will find success.<br />
See you at the bar!<br />
Networking is not right or wrong, it’s just<br />
about people connecting. Often we are<br />
a tad insecure and a little tipsy too. If you<br />
don’t find what you are looking for, smile<br />
and move on with effortless grace. There<br />
are plenty more people to meet.<br />
