Networking Error

Networking ErrorNetworking ErrorIf youre networking to find a job, youre doing it wrong.Dont network to get a job. Network to build value-added relationships. The job will come.When people begin their job search, they often start by calling and e-mailing everyone they know in hopes of getting a job, or a better job. Imagine hearing from someone that you havent heard from in five years. The person says, Hey, I would love to buy you a cup of coffee. Im in a career transition, and Im wondering if you might know of someone who would benefit from my particular skills and experience. That sounds an awful lot like, I need a job. You got one? I bet youre pretty excited to meet with that person, arent you?This same scenario happens at networking events. A networking event can be a Happy Hour gatherbeiing, a community event, a fundraiser or a kids sporting event. If you go into that gathering with the attitude of, Im going to let people know Im looking for a certain kind of job and see if I st ir up any interest, then you are bedrngnis going to be successful over the long term. You might get some leads for a job, but you are not going to be looked upon as a real player in the job market over the long term.Give value in order to get valueParadoxically, the way to get leads for great jobs is to not focus on getting a job while you are networking. When you are networking, which means meeting the type of people that you want to meet, focus on four activitiesGet to know the other person and find out what is of value to him or her.Determine how you can add relevant value to the person.Deliver that value.Stay in touch with that person by periodically delivering value that matters to him or her.Imagine youre at a neighborhood party. Everyone is having a good time. You get into a conversation with a person that you would like to have in your professional network. Dont ask the person to sign up for your LinkedIn or Twitter account. Dont tell him or her what youre good at or about y our job experiences.Just ask the person about his or her job. Learn as much as you can about the persons responsibilities. Find out what excites the person and what motivates, frustrates and challenges him or her. Learn about the persons interests outside of work.Then when you get home jot down some notes about the person. Put the notes in a file. Then start to think about how you can add value to that person. Perhaps you can recommend a book or forward an online article to that person. Maybe you see an article in a magazine that you think would be of value to that person. You may know someone that you can connect to this person where both individuals will benefit from meeting each other.Keep your focus on the other person, not on yourself. Be conscientious about adding value to that person over an extended period of time.Focus on quality, not quantityNotice the work involved in effective networking. If you want to build value-added relationships which means you add value first and hopefully gain value later it takes a fair amount of time and effort. You cannot meet 100 people at a party, get to know each of them, find out what makes them tick, determine what will be of value to each of them and send them real value on a consistent basis. That is just not going to happen.Instead focus at a gathering on meeting one or two people that you will really want to build a relationship with. You may have to talk with 15 people to find the one person who fits the type of person that you want in your professional network. It helps a great deal if you know the type of person you want to stay connected to before the networking event begins.The buzzword today is social networking. And there are the occasional success stories where someone met someone else through some form of electronic social networking and ended up getting a great job. However, there are a whole lot of other stories where people signed up hundreds of thousands of people on their Twitter accounts and end ed up with no real value-added relationships.If you are going to work to build relationships via social networking tools, I encourage you to maintain the mind-set that quality is far better than quantity. Building value-added relationships implies that there is a relationship there. Its a professional relationship, but its leise a relationship, which means you will have to invest time and effort into making that a good relationship.Communicate the value you wantOnce you have built a value-added relationship with another person, you are in a much better position to let him or her know about what you are looking for. This doesnt happen in the first month that you met the other person. Give it at least 90 days of contact before you can feel confident enough to inquire about a career opportunity. When you get to the point that you want to discuss your career, dont use the phrase, I have a favor to ask. Instead say, Im looking to make a move in my career. The thing I love to do the most is manage groups to achieve breakthrough results. (Put in whatever the right finish to that statement is for you.) If you come across anything like that, I would be excited to follow up on it.You do have to let people know what you want in order to get it. However, there is an art to this. You dont bludgeon the other person over the head with, I need a job. You got one? the very first time you meet him or her. Instead you build value-added relationships with people and eventually the value will flow toward you. Building a value-added network is something I encourage you to do in good times and bad times, when you have a job and when you are looking for a job. Since it should take you about 90 days before you are in a position to let the other person know about a job you want, its best to network on a consistent basis over the long term.

How to Deal With Being Passed Over for a Promotion -The Muse

How to Deal With Being Passed Over for a Promotion -The MuseHow to Deal With Being Passed Over for a Promotion Being passed over for a promotion that you really wanted stings. Your first reaction may be to hit the job boards and start shooting your resume over to friends, hatching a plan to get out of there as soon as you can. But just because you suffered this (major) setback doesnt mean you need to jump ship. Nearly everyone has been overlooked for a job they deserved, and many have come back stronger and more successful. These four steps will help you get over the rejection youre facing so you can continue kicking butt at your job 1. Redirect Your Negative EmotionsIf you dont feel at least a bit emotional after losing out on a promotion, then you have better composure than most. But for many of us, that moment can be tough to swallow, and its perfectly normal to feel flustered. Although you might be fuming, its important that you take a step back from the situation and give yourse lf the opportunity to cool off before doing anything else. You certainly wouldnt want to lose control and torpedo the professional reputation youve strived so hard to build before youve had to the chance to gather all the facts. A couple years ago, I was passed over for a promotion when- in my mind- I should have been a shoe-in. I was so infuriated that I just wanted to walk out and never come back, but after grabbing drinks with my friends and venting out that frustration, I realized that giving up and leaving the company wasnt what I wanted. I came back into the office the next week with a renewed focus and intensity, eager to not let this setback distract or damage my performance. 2. Be Proactive and Seek Direct FeedbackAfter checking those feelings of anger and hurt at the door, its time to take control and transform a negative experience into a potentially positive learning opportunity. Theres no need to play detective by slyly dropping hints to co-workers to get the scoop on w hat happened the professional move is to go straight to the source and ask your boss. Youre likely to get some insight into the areas you can improve upon, as well as how leadership decisions are made at your company. Plus, you might gain some newfound respect from your manager for your professionalism and desire to grow your career with the company.When I missed out on that promotion, I needed concrete feedback from my boss so I could stop running the scenario over-and-over again in my head- comparing myself to the other candidates without actually knowing what my company was looking for. 3. Use it as a Learning OpportunityNow that you have the answers, its time to get real with yourself. Knowing the criticism and what your bosses were looking for, do you still believe you deserved to be promoted? Was there something more that you couldve done, or were there factors completely out of your control? As much as we all wish promotions would go to the most talented, hardworking, and ded icated people, decades of office politics tells us thats not always the case. But in order to determine whether the feedback you received was reliable or just some crap to cover up a nonbusiness motivated decision, you actually need to listen to it and be candid with yourself about your performance. Theres usually some combination of factors at play when youre passed over for a promotion. In my case, I found that there were some things going on behind-the-scenes that I wasnt aware of, as well as discovering that there were some specific areas I could still improve to have a better shot next time. 4. Figure Out Your Next StepNot getting promoted isnt the end of the world, but that doesnt mean now is the time to become complacent either. If it wasnt a matter of inevitable office politics, start thinking about the things you need to do to make it a reality next time and set a time frame for yourself (or your company) to make that happen. If youve set a reasonable timeline or feel like youre being manipulated or taken advantage of, then it might be time to consider an exit plan. Trust your gut, if you sought feedback and something smells fishy or doesnt add up, then youre probably right in considering outside options. Thats why its so important to go to the source to get to the bottom of it. For me, I took the feedback to heart and worked on some areas I was lacking so that I wouldnt be denied a second time. The same position opened up four months later, and I got it. But I also had a contingency plan in place in case I was denied the promotion a second time. Id already thought about my next career move. At first, getting passed over for a promotion can feel like an impossible-to-overcome roadblock in your career path. But by learning as much as you can from went wrong and staying resilient, you can turn a negative into a positive thatll help you land the next one.
