Tips for successful networking

* Be authentic. Be yourself. Don’t be concerned about what others might think. (That is sometimes difficult, but you owe it to yourself to try it.) Be real. Don’t try to be the “want to be” you. Let people see, and get to know, the real you.

* Know what you have to offer. Start conversations with people and tell them what you have to offer. Be bold! Be fearless! Speak intelligently and have interesting things to say (about you, your profession, current events, etc.).

* Have a 30-second elevator speech ready. This is a quick marketing response for the question most often asked (but often not taken advantage of), “what do you do for a living?” Your response to this question needs to clearly describe what you can do for an employer and also let people know that you are currently seeking career opportunities. Remember, you are in a selling position and you are the product. Why should someone hire you? What do you offer that others don’t? As an executive, what successes have you had?
