“Over 70% of jobs aren’t advertised—they’re filled through connections. Who you know can make all the difference.”
Networking with Purpose
Networking is often misunderstood as simply asking for favours, but the truth is, it’s about creating meaningful, two-way relationships. The most powerful connections come from a mindset of mutual growth. Instead of focusing on what others can do for you, ask yourself: “How can I bring value to this relationship?”
Networking is a long-term investment in learning, sharing, and collaboration.
Each person you meet is an opportunity to expand your knowledge, gain insights, and contribute something in return. Whether it’s sharing advice, offering resources, or simply listening, these connections become the foundation for future opportunities.
Make Five New Connections This Week
This week, take the initiative to reach out to five professionals in your industry. It could be through LinkedIn, attending virtual or in-person events, or even sending a thoughtful email. When reaching out, don’t just ask for something—bring value to the conversation. Share a relevant article, ask for their perspective on a trending topic, or propose a potential collaboration.
By focusing on providing value, you’ll establish genuine relationships that can lead to opportunities down the line.
