1 Identify your gaps

The first step to diversify your network is to identify where you have gaps or blind spots in your current contacts. You can use tools like LinkedIn or your own CRM system to analyze the demographics, sectors, and functions of your network. Then, you can set some goals to reach out to people who can fill those gaps and broaden your exposure. For example, you might want to connect with more women, people of color, or LGBTQ+ professionals in your field, or with people who work in different domains or regions.

Mapeie pessoas que você deseja acompanhar dentro do LinkedIn, por exemplo, aquelas que falam sobre o conteúdo que você quer aprender ou se aprofundar mais! No LinkedIn, existem mais de 1 milh?o de usuários que compartilham sobre diversos temas, desde finan?as até saúde. Por isso, escolha alguns para acompanhar diariamente os seus conteúdos, ajudando-o a ser mais ativo na rede e a ampliar o seu conhecimento.

2 Seek diverse mentors and sponsors

Another way to diversify your network is to seek mentors and sponsors who can offer you guidance, feedback, and advocacy. Mentors and sponsors are not the same thing: mentors are people who share their knowledge and experience with you, while sponsors are people who use their influence and credibility to promote you to others. You can benefit from having both types of relationships in your network, especially with people who have different backgrounds and perspectives from you. You can find diverse mentors and sponsors through formal programs, online platforms, or personal referrals.

Antes de tudo, saiba bem quem será o seu mentor! Ser mentorado implica concordar e seguir as orienta??es do seu mentor. Portanto, se você n?o concordar com ele ou n?o estiver conectado com o mesmo, durante a mentoria você pode ter problemas e divergências que v?o atrapalhar o processo.

3 Join diverse communities and groups

A third way to diversify your network is to join diverse communities and groups that align with your interests, values, or goals. These can be online or offline, formal or informal, professional or personal. For example, you can join a LinkedIn group, a Slack channel, a meetup, a webinar, a podcast, a book club, or a volunteer organization that caters to a diverse audience. By participating in these communities and groups, you can learn from others, share your insights, and build rapport and trust.

In my experience this is a great way to expand your network. Joining diverse groups and communities here on LinkedIn or on other platforms, or even your own local community center can create opportunities to meet and connect with new people. I believe that whatever groups or communities you join, one must make sure that you enjoy being there and be open to new experiences and connections. Doing something just to expand your network and not having fun doing it is a waste of time!

On top of joining diverse groups, I would suggest to diversify your career network while focusing on your interests and passion. It's fundamental to focus on those to create also an impact, so consider joining groups that can be related to your hobbies or other niches areas both online or offline (ex. workshops, forums). By immersing yourself in communities centered around your interests, you can expand your network while doing activities you enjoy

4 Be curious and respectful

A fourth way to diversify your network is to be curious and respectful when interacting with people who are different from you. This means asking open-ended questions, listening actively, acknowledging differences, and avoiding assumptions or stereotypes. It also means being aware of your own biases and privileges, and being willing to challenge them. By being curious and respectful, you can show genuine interest and appreciation for others, and foster a culture of inclusion and belonging.

Una de las reglas de oro del Networking es que tu red de contactos será mejor cuanto más diversa y heterogénea sea, cuántas más personas influyentes haya, cuanto más numerosa sea tu red y más interactúes con sus miembros. La diversidad en tu red te aporta distintos enfoques, incrementa tu creatividad y te abre oportunidades nuevas, entre otras cuestiones. Además, debes tener en cuenta que, si buscas resultados distintos, no hagas siempre lo mismo ni estés con tu mismo círculo de personas. La inclusión y la igualdad es una convicción personal. Por eso es necesario crear planes de capacitación para la diversidad, dise?ar un sistema de ense?anza que fomente y ayude a inculcar dichos valores.

5 Follow up and follow through

A fifth way to diversify your network is to follow up and follow through with the people you connect with. This means staying in touch, providing value, expressing gratitude, and honoring commitments. It also means being consistent and authentic in your communication and actions. By following up and follow through, you can maintain and strengthen your relationships, and demonstrate your reliability and integrity.

Diversificar é importante, mas cuidado para n?o perder o foco! Sempre tente se conectar com mais pessoas da sua área, pois s?o essas pessoas que v?o se interessar pelos seus conteúdos e pelo seu dia a dia. No entanto, n?o deixe isso te limitar apenas a se conectar com essas pessoas. Esteja aberto(a) a novas conex?es e busque se conectar com outros tipos de áreas para ajudar a gerar ideias e manter-se atento às novidades de diferentes mercados.

Para diversificar sua rede de carreira, considere participar de eventos da indústria, conferências, workshops e seminários relevantes. Além disso, explore plataformas online, como LinkedIn, para conectar-se com profissionais de diferentes setores. Ingresse em grupos de interesse específico e participe ativamente de discuss?es. Busque oportunidades de mentoria e networking em áreas fora de sua expertise atual. Mantenha-se aberto a colabora??es interdisciplinares e construa relacionamentos genuínos, n?o apenas com profissionais do mesmo campo, mas também de áreas complementares. Essa abordagem amplia sua rede e pode abrir portas para novas oportunidades de carreira.
