Networking - Action - Plan

Networking to build your career and open doors to future opportunities is not only a necessity, but a requirement to succeed in today's job market. But, I think most of us don't really look at how to really be "successful" at networking. Yes, we go to some professional organization meetings and follow up with some folks, but are we really moving forward in building and leveraging this network to future opportunities??

I recommend reading Keith Ferrazzi's book - Never Eat Alone to understand how you can take the right steps. Keith provides his own lessons learned, but most importantly, his book helps surface questions that we need to answer to make sure we can move forward in a powerful, action oriented way.
