Networking Know How Shared

I know I tweeted this podcast when it was first made available, but I meant to share it here on my blog as well:

It’s an interview I did with Allie Osmar of The Creative Career.  I loved that she acknowledged her own experience of finding networking a great way to meet new people, and, inadvertently, becoming a go-to person within a community as well as for making friends when you’re a newbie in town.

You can directly access and listen to the MP3 HERE. (She’s had 324 downloads as of this blog post to date!) 🙂

Adding value is key to networking

Lots of good advice in this Bankrate.com article titled, “5 Networking Strategies to a New Job” which includes a contribution from yours truly as a result of being interviewed by freelance writer Donna Fuscaldo in Nov 2009. As she summarizes, “While your behavior will differ, depending on where you are networking, all networking events share one commonality — adding value to the relationship.”

I luv that all the folks Donna interviewed for this piece are clearly singing the same song!
