Ep 34 – Networking: The Power of Community for Your Career and Bank
It’s a thing that some people live for, and others shy away from. But the benefits of networking – for introverts and extroverts alike! – go beyond getting your bank noticed or advancing in your career. We all know it, but fostering genuine relationships leads to increased knowledge, growth, and opportunities. Furthermore, connecting with others can bring forth valuable insights from different sectors, pain points, and successes, leveling up the innovation in your own work.
In the episode, Chris Bates and Dan Novalis highlight the importance of engaging with various sectors in the C-suite and competitors to stay on top of emerging trends. Networking is frequently talked about – the goal is not to make you the world’s best networker, but rather to bring some motivation to your day to meet and chat with new people.
