Networking is illustrated by Lucille Ball in her
famous attempts to "be in the show" on I Love Lucy. A classic t.v. show
that most of us have enjoyed, I Love Lucy is a satirical look at what
networking is all about.
Networking is not merely "name dropping" to your friends or potential
employers, but a look at Lucy can help you get rid of your fear of
rejection! You may recall that Lucy often got what she asked for. And
yes, she also looked like a goof-ball sometimes -- but at least she
tried! In a way, we are all searching for our starring role and if the
entire cast doesn't know what you can do, you'll never get that perfect
role!
Three out of four jobs in the U.S. are found via networking, not through
the newspaper, career offices, or placement agencies. It is imperative
that you develop this essential skill before you go looking for your
"role!" |
