Human Kind. Be Both.

The secret to real networking? Be kind. Be human. Kindness sparks connection. Humanity builds relationships.

After two decades of helping people connect and build relationships, I’ve discovered that one word captures the true heart of networking and human connection.

It is the story of all people—past, present, and future—woven together by the shared experience of being human.

But it also reflects a way for people to be “human” and “kind” to others, which are two qualities at the heart of genuine networking and real connections.
