Welcome  to  the  February  2011  edition  of  the  SWKInsider

The  Right  Kind  of  NetworkingBy  Jeffrey  D.  Roth,  CEO

I  am  a  natural  networker.  I  remain

unconvinced  that  people  can  learn  to  be  great

networkers  –  they  can  only  learn  "what"  to

do,  "how"  to  do  it  and  then  try  to  execute.

They  can  perhaps  become  "good"  networkers,

but  there's  a  limit.

A  concerted  effort  by  attending  meetings

regularly,  following  the  rules,  participating  in

events  and  making  the  occasional  referral  to

a  fellow  networker  have  a  positive  effect  and

improve  your  chances  of  success  while

traveling  the  twisted,  winding  networking  trail.

However,  all  of  this  activity  doesn't  make  you

great  at  networking.
