“Expertise and a goal are just your starting point. Networks are crucial because gaining access changes your outcome.”
J. Kelly Hoey, Build Your Dream Network: Forging Powerful Relationships in a Hyper-Connected World

“Asking why separates opportunity from a distracting time waste. When opportunities abound (meetups, Twitter chats, speed networking, reunions, summits, and seminars), how do you efficiently and quickly sort the productive from the less than productive? Here's the why filter I use: Is the opportunity aligned with my goal(s)? Will my participation add value to the other attendees and be valuable for me? Does the opportunity expand my network and/or strengthen existing relationships? What does my gut say? (Yes, I'm a big believer in trusting your gut.)”
J. Kelly Hoey, Build Your Dream Network: Forging Powerful Relationships in a Hyper-Connected World

“What I do know about networking is this: It is an essential and continuous activity. You control the effort - but not the outcome. Networking is everywhere.”
J. Kelly Hoey, Build Your Dream Network: Forging Powerful Relationships in a Hyper-Connected World

“There is a networking game to be played — and it’s not the one you’ve been taught.”
