Welcome!

Welcome!

This is The Right Place Newsletter 01 ??

The point of this newsletter is to share my networking knowledge with you, inform you of amazing events and opportunities, and give you some more behind the scenes of my personal journey.

At every meeting I have, every event I attend, I learn more about networking. It is this knowledge I want to share with you and your teams. Not only on LinkedIn, but also through this newsletter and talking at organisations.

So far, I have designed 3 keynotes that encapsulate my learnings on networking and what I consider to be the best solutions for the best results:

In 1-hour I get through my keynote and some of your questions.

In 2-hours we do the above + have more time for questions + unpack your pain points of networking + work out great solutions together.

But why should you care about networking?

Because:

1.??People buy from people. You know this.

2.??Real relationships matter even more in the age of AI.

3.??Our personal networks are full of unchartered territory where new opportunities are waiting for us. Don’t you want to identify them?

This brings me to my request:

I want to talk at your organisation when you have your annual strategic / planning / new-year / end-year thing. Later in 2023 or in early 2024.

So please invite me, I just want 1-2 hours to change your mind on networking. Email [email protected] today to book me.

I believe each organisation should have a strategy, a plan or at least an idea on how to handle networking and what networking culture they want to build in their organisation and ultimately allow in their teams.

By elevating your networking approach, mindset, and visibility you will see new opportunities coming your way.

This is what is coming up very soon:

? I’ll be at the SAICA Finance Leaders event from 21-22 Nov. in Sandton.

? The First Minute South Africa Tour 2024 with Chris Fenning is happening, and Rudolf Rautenbach and I we are already working on some exciting events in Cape Town and JHB.

In forthcoming newsletters there will be:

? More detailed learnings on networking.

? Expanded knowledge on some of my popular LinkedIn posts.

? How the Clara Business Network works, and what is next for 2024.

Final Thought:

“We are all just one conversation away from changing the trajectory of our lives.” John Sanei

Love this John! It's awesome that you are spreading the word about connecting. It really is so important. From my personal perspective, we need to network with others in order to go forward, but being more introverted makes that difficult, so having these types of things are great. Wish I was in SA to attend some of the events
