Expanding Your Network
• The essence of networking: – talking to old contacts to get leads and following
up on those leads– meeting new people and striking up a
conversation– joining new organizations and becoming active
• And this is where most people fail. • What are some ways to extend your existing
network?
![Page 11: Personal Branding Part 2: Me 3.0](https://reader037.fdocuments.in/reader037/viewer/2022100600/555103a5b4c9057b478b4fc9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Expanding Your Network, Cont’d
• Ways to extend your existing network:– Phone calls– Letters or newsletter – Join a professional society or civic organization – Internet newsgroups– Consultants and consultants' networks – Technical conferences, workshops– Someone at a company you'd like to work for – Recruiters, headhunters

Exercise 2
• The winner is the person who fills in the most blanks. NOTE: a person can't sign for more than one item on a form. (By the way, the numeric series in the last item on the hunt are the values for 5% standard resistors.)
• For groups that might not contain a significant number of EE's, you might want to substitute:
• Has a golf handicap of 10 or less, or Has met a US President.)• What you should learn from this exercise: Ask participants what
they learned about• You should be learning that if you know what you are looking for,
you can find it; and there are valuable contacts all around us.
