1 Set clear goals

Before you start networking, you need to have a clear idea of what you want to achieve. Do you want to find new clients, partners, mentors, or referrals? Do you want to learn new skills, insights, or trends? Do you want to build your reputation, credibility, or visibility? Having specific and realistic goals will help you focus your networking efforts and measure your results.

For a busy executive, networking if at all is important, one will find time. To network effectively for any busy executive, one must set an agenda, what is the reason, what is the outcome one is expecting. Decide on a platform, LinekdIn is a good platform is it is for serious work-related networking. Be consistent, be active, not just for the sake of it. If one sticks to the networking, online or offline events, which serve the purpose of the networking, one will find time. Be organized, do not be active with irrelevant topics. Being active in only those platforms, offline events like exhibitions, seminars etc. the person will invest time where required. Remember, others are busy too, so value their time, as much as yours.

Definir objetivos específicos para tus actividades de networking es fundamental. Llevo más de 13 a?os participando muy activamente en la red de networking BNI y pronto he podido comprobar que las personas que tienen más éxito son las personas que más claro tienen el camino que deben seguir. Esto podría incluir metas como incrementar las ventas y/o tú has de clientes, subir el nivel de tu base de clientes, expandir tu red en un sector específico, encontrar potenciales socios de negocio, o adquirir conocimientos sobre tendencias emergentes en tu industria. Al tener claras tus metas, debes dirigir tus esfuerzos de networking de manera más eficiente, asegurando que cada interacción aporte valor a tus objetivos profesionales.

2 Choose quality over quantity

You don't need to attend every event, join every platform, or exchange cards with everyone you meet. Instead, you should prioritize the networking opportunities that are most relevant, valuable, and aligned with your goals. Look for events, groups, or platforms that cater to your industry, niche, or interest. Research the speakers, hosts, or attendees beforehand and identify the ones you want to connect with. Then, prepare some questions, comments, or compliments to start a conversation.

En un mundo ideal, podrías conectar con un gran número de personas, la tecnologia te ayudaría con eso, pero la realidad nos dicta que debemos ser estrictos con la utilización de nuestro tiempo. Prioriza la calidad de las conexiones por encima de la cantidad. Dise?a bien tu red de contactos, define claramente tu esfera de influencia para que te puedas enfocar en construir relaciones que ofrezcan un intercambio mutuo de valor. Esto significa identificar y enfocarte en contactos que compartan intereses profesionales similares, que puedan ofrecer perspectivas únicas, o que estén en posiciones para influir positivamente en tu carrera o negocio. Elige primero ayudar a los demás para que ellos te quieran ayudar a ti.

3 Leverage your existing network

You don't have to start from scratch when it comes to networking. You already have a network of contacts that you can tap into and expand. Think about your colleagues, clients, suppliers, alumni, friends, or family who might have connections or insights that could benefit you. Reach out to them regularly and offer your help, advice, or feedback. Ask them for introductions, recommendations, or invitations to their networks. And don't forget to thank them and reciprocate their generosity.

Muchas veces, el mayor valor viene de las personas que ya tenemos en nuestra red de contactos. Revisa tu red actual e identifica oportunidades no explotadas. Seguro que hay antiguos colegas, contactos de eventos/conferencias, clientes, proveedores, o incluso amigos que puedan introducirte a nuevos contactos relevantes. Sólo tienes que saber explicarles muy bien lo que estás buscando y cómo te pueden ayudar. También puedes aprovechar tus mejores contactos en determinada área para construir conocimiento, invítales a un café y hablen sobre temas importantes para tu sector. Mantener y profundizar estas relaciones puede ser más efectivo que construir nuevas desde cero, pero no te olvides que una relación se construye en dos sentidos.

4 Use technology wisely

Technology can be a great tool to help you network effectively, especially in the digital age. You can use social media, apps, podcasts, webinars, or blogs to find and follow influencers, experts, or peers in your field. You can use email, video calls, or chatbots to communicate and follow up with your contacts. You can use automation, scheduling, or reminders to manage your networking tasks and time. But remember, technology is not a substitute for human interaction. You still need to be authentic, respectful, and engaging when you use it.

5 Be consistent and proactive

Networking is not a one-time activity or a quick fix. It's a long-term process that requires commitment and action. You need to be consistent and proactive in building and maintaining your relationships. You need to follow up with your contacts regularly and keep them updated on your progress, achievements, or challenges. You need to share valuable information, resources, or opportunities with them. You need to ask for feedback, referrals, or support when you need it. And you need to show your appreciation, recognition, or gratitude when you receive it.

For me it worked to add networking to one of my daily routines, like morning coffee, my kids’s sport classless, etc. If you commit to spending 15 min a few times a week for networking, you will succeed in creating a new valuable habit for your career.

A simple way to keep your network strong is to find time every week to: 1. Reach out to one new person. This could happen at an event, online, or through a mutual connection. Ask them about their area of expertise and express your interest in learning from them. Everyone loves to talk about their passion with an engaged audience! 2. Reconnect with one person you haven't spoken with in a while. Reminisce about a time they helped you and how it changed you for the better. Everyone loves to know that they've made a difference!

El networking efectivo requiere un trabajo constante. Hay que dedicar tiempo cada semana para construir y nutrir una red de contactos amplia y profunda. Considera participar en grupos de networking (BNI es el mejor ejemplo), en asociaciones sectoriales u otros grupos, que te permitan solidificar relaciones existentes y conocer a nuevas personas que sean sinérgicas contigo. La proactividad también es clave; no esperes a que las oportunidades lleguen a ti, no esperes a que las personas vengan corriendo hacia ti para ayudarte. Busca activamente formas de aportar a tu red, manteniéndote en contacto, ofreciendo tu ayuda, tu conocimiento, tu tiempo, antes de pedir algo a cambio. Dar para recibir o, como decimos en BNI, Givers Gain.

6 Take care of yourself

Networking can be rewarding, but it can also be stressful, exhausting, or overwhelming. That's why you need to take care of yourself and your well-being. You need to set boundaries and limits on how much time and energy you spend on networking. You need to balance your networking activities with your other work and personal obligations. You need to respect your own preferences and style when it comes to networking. And you need to have fun, relax, and enjoy the process of meeting and connecting with new people.

Además de lo que he comentado en los puntos anteriores, dejo otras tres ideas: 1. Sé genuino en tus interacciones, ya que construir relaciones auténticas es fundamental para un networking de largo plazo. 2. Está al tanto de las últimas tendencias en tu industria/sector y comparte esos conocimientos con tu red. Esto te dará visibilidad y credibilidad, lo que posicionará como un líder de pensamiento. Atención que tarda tiempo, no es de la noche al día… 3. No subestimes el poder de las redes sociales profesionales como LinkedIn para expandir y nutrir tu red de contactos. Una presencia asidua y que aporta valor a la red es un plus.
