Product Description

Review
"...useful for people taking a fresh look at networking because it provides a solid framework for building mutually beneficial professional relationships" People Management, June 03

Product Description
Networking has undergone a complete transformation. From a time when it had distatesful connotations with power-hungry megalomaniacs, who would develop social relationships to turn to their business advantage, it has become an essential but altruistic tool for those wishing to be the best they can be.

Relationships are critical to success; so often, knowing the right person to ask is as valuable as knowing the answer yourself, if not more so. Being well-connected is the ultimate source of personal effectivess and advantage. And it's now a case of shared success - with what you can give being as important as what you get out of your networking success.

So many networking books either focus on the social 'meeting people and making friends' or the overly formal 'influencing and connecting'  sides to networking. Personal Networking provides a straightforward approach to building and working within networks. It delivers a practical guide to creating the kind of network that you need, and becoming a natural and effective networked communicator.

2.0 out of 5 stars Badly written, disappointing, 30 Sep 2004
By A Customer
There is some good stuff in here, but most of it is recycled from other authors.

Fair enough in a way - it does form a useful summary.

But I had a real problem with the way it was written. For example (p. 133), "By the process of reducing your initial request you have planted a favour seed of a concession." What on earth does this mean - what's a 'favour seed of a concession'? I have no idea, and I'm inclined to think the author doesn't know exactly what he means either. Every couple of pages there's a bit of jargon like this that just makes me squirm.

4.0 out of 5 stars the least fluffy book on networking, 12 April 2005
Unlike the first reviewer, I found this book very useful. It's true that the book is like a summary of the whole field, but surely that is good? Most other networking books are full of waffle whereas this one is to the point and business-like. In addition to the normal networking advice the author encourages a balanced network by plotting charts and looking at yourself and the people you know. It is a practical book for if you actually want to network.
