So many of us have our own styles of networking, and our own way of sorting through new people that approach us.
One question that I have, is that if we try is it not possible to find something in common with every other human being today? It may be a hobby, a favorite movie or author. It could be a common feeling that we have in our family, with out loved ones. It could be frustrations over the economy, or a puppy that keeps making a mess in the house. If you are the richest, well bred person in the world, you still have some things in common with anyone else that you could meet.
We have been taught to be private, to be wary of strangers. I understand people that are cautious. One thing that I want you to consider, is that you never know what wonderful new connections are right around the corner.
Please remember that the best connections are a relationship first. If you push someone with your sales message, you will probably never get to know them. If someone gives you warning signs, just back off. Be considerate of others. Many times you are networking with someone as they are working or if they are checking up on messages at home, during their family time.
My point is that no matter how much we put on our networking profiles, we may still have many interests in common with each other that will only come out with discussion and further friendly contact. It is really worth it to have new and amazing networking contacts and friends around the world.
Give each other the benefit of the doubt whether they seem very different from you by culture, socio-economic status, education, or religion. If they are lovely and friendly, you can learn a lot from every new relationship!
By the way, make me a friend!! I love meeting new people!
