In networking:

  • Connections are often flimsy because they lack ongoing support
  • People are bound together because one person needs the other for a project, sale, or deal. It’s often one-sided.
  • One particular situation binds the two together – and once that situation ends, the relationship isn’t strong enough to sustain itself.

In Networlding:

  • Relationships begin when you’re clear in your intent – in the broad sense of the word.
  • You communicate your goals and values, and those who resonate with that will respond to you.
  • When someone responds positively, and you’re able to establish a Networlding relationship, both can reap the benefits.
  • This new partner, or potential new partner, will become a source of fresh ideas, support, and help bring about more opportunities.
