NEWS AND NOTES
Networking and mentorship
are opposite ends of thesame spectrum. Mentoringcould be dened as connect-
ing with the purpose of helping othersreach their full potential, and network-ing is creating valuable connections forthe purpose of fullling your own goals.
Ive heard both mentioned repeat-edly over the last several months, andthought it appropriate to share someideas that can be used for both mentorsand networkers alike. e following wasoriginally by Dan Rockwell on his blog at
e Leadership Freak http://leadership-freak.wordpress.com/2012/02/03/10-power-tips-for-connecting-with-pow-erful-people/ where Dan provides thelist of Jesse Lyn Stoners 10 power tips forconnecting with powerful people.
Connect now. Dont wait till you have agreat idea.Align with corporate culture.Put yourselfin the right place.Dont eat while you work. Eat where they
eat. If executives eat in a pub-
lic cafeteria, grab a tray.Engage on social media.Friend on facebook. Com-ment on their blog. Follow ontwitter.Arrive at work when they do.Connect with leaders in otherdepartments.Contribute to the companynewsletter.Include board members.Never connect for personal
gain. Disingenuous behaviors
oend.
ough geared towards cor-porate and work relationships, the pointof this post is to discover for yourselfwhen and where are appropriate pointsof connection. Mentor the right personfor the right reason. Network with theright people and have a clear purposefor doing so. If you follow these tips, youwill eectively increase the quality ofyour connections.
