Knowledge Networking vs Referral Networking 10-05-07
Most people are involved in at least two types of networking groups. The first is called, "intraprofessional networking." It's better know as "knowledge networking" as Megratrends author John Naisbitt calls it. Knowledge networks foster self-help, information exchange, improved productivity and and work life, and shared resources. The second type of networking is, "interprofessional networking" or "referral networking." This is where business builders and occupational types primary purpose would be to connect and network to increase each others business through referrals or leads. It works because it is based upon developing relationships with other business professionals. Our Ten Star Network goal is to be very pro-active in creating a blend of both intraprofessional and interprofessional networking. Simply stated, our goal is to help our members create unlimited opportunity in both, knowledge networking and referral networking. <- Back to: Articles |
