Potential Partner Guide

Potential Partner Guide
First think about your values and imagine the ideal mix of people you would want in your primary circle. Avoid editing yourself; let your ideas and imagination flow. Jot down your wish list. Explore sources to find connectors, influencers . . . in other words Networlders.
Consider the following:
– FAST Company magazine
– 40 under 40 lists (Crains usually publishes this)
– Magazines that list the best companies for women to work in, the best ethical companies, the companies with the best CEO’s (Sources include Forbes, Crains, Fortune, Inc, etc)
– Showcased articles in local newspapers – business sections, on top business leader (you are looking for people who, through their words or stories, espouse complimentary values to yours)
– Referrals from your local chamber to top business leaders
– Research on the web with heading such as “socially responsible companies, business leaders, top business leaders, etc.)
