While reading one of the many articles I read during a week about business relationships and networking , I came upon one that really resonated with the principles in which The Networking Exchange was founded. It talks about the 3 universal laws of networking and because they really encompass the vision The Networking Exchange has, I wanted to share:
Networking Law 1- The Law of Abundance.- This looks at the idea that everyone can win. There are plenty of opportunities , ideas, clients and customers in the world, Great networkers believe in an abundance of opportunities and are willing to help and work with everyone. They take who others might see as competition and turn them into opportunities to collaborate.They know that the best win - is when everyone wins.
Networking Law 2 - The Law of Reciprocity - This is the belief that whatever you give out comes back tenfold. Whether it's help , love or information, - if you are willing to give it - you'll get it back. Usually the giving is instantaneous and the getting back may take some time. True networkers however believe that no matter what - you'll always get what you give 10 times over so they are willing to help out whenever needed.
Networking Law 3- The Law of Giving Without Expectation - The most successful networkers simply give. You do something for someone not because you want something, but because you want to see someone succeed
This law also says networkers also make heart-to-heart connections with people when they talk to them. They listen with their hearts as well as their ears – they are totally focused on the person in front them, regardless of whether they think that person could be a prospect, client, new friend or just someone to add to their network. . The basic philosophy of great networkers is to treat everyone the way they would like to be treated.
These laws all draw the same conclusion. Networking is not something you do to get something. Networking really is a life skill and it is something that flows through all areas of your life. I think you'll find the most successful business people are the ones that adopt these laws as their personal philosophy not only in business but also in life in general.
The Networking Exchange has been built for it's members success. Through collaboration ,education and programs designed to take businesses to the next level, The Networking Exchange is providing cutting edge advertising opportunities to the area business community.
