My Two Very Simple Rules for Networking

I only have two simple rules of networking:

1) I try to meet at least one new person in my area of interest every month, or significantly deepen an existing relationship.

2) I do something nice for someone in my network every week.

This second doesn’t have to be a big find-someone-a-job favor, but instead can be connecting two people who should know each other, sharing research or information that someone you know may find useful, or posting a LinkedIn recommendation on a colleague.

Over time, these two very simple rules are small seeds that you plant, any one of which can one day provide a strong return. And in the meantime, they’ll give you a lot of joy.
