It's Who You Know
We all have a network … the question is whether it is the right network for you? Janine is an expert at helping people identify who their network is – do you have the right people at the right stage in your career and life to help guide, steer, cheer and challenge you on your journey? Networking is not about collecting business cards or LinkedIn connections but about strategically identifying and engaging with the selected individuals who form your tribe to help you achieve your goals. It's Who You Know will show you how.
Finally – a fresh alternative to networking that makes sense. This is a book for smart people on a quest to build quality connections.
Janine Garner is a true connector of people and has helped teach, support and encourage countless women and men from the corporate industry and private business owners to drive deeper, stronger results through her excellent business acumen and experience. It's Who You Know is absolutely essential reading for those who wish to learn the best personal networking strategies or for those who are at a stage where they wish to re-energise their professional and personal goals and kick-start the process to achieve more!
Build a strategic network before you change the world. Leaders know that it's not just what you know, it's also who you know that defines 21st century success. We may be the sum total of the five people we know and spend time with. This book shows you how to be strategic and intentional about how you do that. Janine embodies this ideal and is the perfect thought leader on the topic.
I'm a real-world example that what Janine says in this book works. I have worked closely with her over the last couple of years expanding the influence of the top talent in my organisation. Janine has brought many individuals from her personal network to the table to share their experiences. You have to make your network matter, and it's a two-way street. You have to read this book.
Networking genius. Whether you hate networking or love it, this book is a must read. It will change the way you network forever. Janine shows us how to network in a way that is easier, better, more fun and more effective. Exhale. Networking just got less awkward and more awesome.
Running your own business can be lonely. I've learned that having a Nexus of 12 key people around me is crucial. There's the person that will give me a hug, the person that challenges my thinking and the one that promotes me, even when I don't feel like promoting myself. The most important thing about my network is the diversity (gender, age, cultural background, industry) – all bring a different perspective to my thinking. This is all thanks to Janine!
It's Who You Know is a must read for anyone in business who wants to achieve and succeed. Packed with practical tools and sound advice, Janine smashes the old paradigm of networking and shows the reader the power of building a small and supportive network based on authentic relationships.
Networking is often feared and more often misunderstood. The conventional concept of networking conjures up images of name badges, cheap plonk and contrived conversations – the stuff of nightmares! The approach Janine has created is a fundamental game changer. She provides a holistic framework that benefits both career and lifestyle. It truly provides a competitive advantage and not only benefits you but the tribe you create.
