Unfortunately being in the right time at the right place isn’t something which most people have in their luck, but forming a successful social network can be an addition to that which we are absent from. Having a successful social network can be the key to driving forward your plans, ideas and career with a more potential degree.
Deriving the sense of networking from our interdependencies, analyze and create a mapping in nodes and ties. Having all bridges open is not necessarily a successful thought of plan, where over-mapping of individuals and organizations can cause a negative complexity. Compare and contrast to it with purpose, goal and work. Filter out which are needed and what is required in addition. Simplification is often the key to having an agreeable network of any kind, that makes optimization more manageable, and where work, information, etc. can be more effectively as well as consistently directed and spread out, ergo reducing the extent of the work and research.
In exchange of economic information and technical data, we must respect the multi-cultural differences, experience and diversity of all types and forms. In that approach our work will have more accrual of respect.
