Networking is more than just exchanging useful information; it is also a means of establishing long-term relationships with mutual benefits.

The significance of the adage"no man is an island" has been demonstrated as the reason why many of us should work together to achieve professional success.

Many individuals who have attained success in their careers attribute their success to the strong channels they have developed over time.

Here are a few of the many benefits of networking rightly.

✓ An avenue to exchange ideas;
You never can tell how much you know without listening to other people. Success in a career is largely attributed to the pool of information or ideas you have gathered over the past.

✓It makes you noticeable;
People quickly notice others that have stronger capabilities to make them relevant. When you stand out in both your expertise and the services you offer, it creates room for partnership which in turn builds a career.

✓ Avenue for newer opportunities;
Business and career-minded individuals who have networked over time have been able to expand with minimal effort because of the avenue of newer opportunities opened to them through networking.

How do I begin a at an event like TEDxFolaOsibo?

Approaching an individual or a big or small group can be intimidating. But with the right approach, you can join an existing conversation or start your own successfully.

A great way to start is by introducing yourself to one person who is also flying solo and looking for someone to talk to.

Check out these few conversation starters:

✓ What do you do for work?

✓ What brought you to this ?

✓ What do you think about the event so far?

✓ Are you familiar with any of the speakers?

Your first connection at an event is your gateway to meeting more people. Maybe they came with friends they can introduce you to, or maybe you'll decide to break into bigger groups together.

Once your first conversation goes smoothly, it’ll give you the confidence to interact with others.
