From the get-go, Networking Success is about one thing: actionable, practical techniques for networking. It’s short, concise, to-the-point, and is very direct in the way it teaches best networking practices.The advice given is what has worked for others and for the author in the past, and is not about making grand gestures. In fact, it is all about doing the little things so that you slowly create connections, or what the author calls, “stacking the odds in your favor.” Case studies of these “little things” are given in the first half of the book. The second half of the book then follows up with outlines of these secrets and why they work, and how you effectively can apply them in your life.The book is based on a series of secrets to networking. Some of the secrets seem so obvious, yet it’s amazing when you think back at all the people you may have networked with who have obviously not practiced them (perhaps even you), and it makes you realize the true worth of outlining them like this. Well-written, and well-worth the time it takes to read.
