Recession and Relationship
I was on the way home from a client meeting this morning, listening to talk radio and the announcer, Daryl Ankarlo, talk about the possibility that with gas at nearly $4 a gallon, the weak dollar, 500% increase in foreclosures, we are on the precipice of a recession.
It struck me that the people who really suffer in recessions are people who have not taken the time to build their networks.
I wrote about this in an earlier post. Taking care of the relationships we have, while sometimes daunting, is critical.
This is especially true when things get scary or shaky. If we have not taken the time to build and nurture our networks, we go it alone.
Who's there to help you when you fall down? Who's there to help you build your business? Who's there to turn you onto new resources? Who's there to help you find a new job? New clients? New sources?
If you haven't really begun the work in earnest - don't fret.
People are intrinsically generous. Especially the ones we've made a difference with. If you reach out now and begin to let the people in your life know what you need, know what you are working on, and offer to be a resource for them as well, they'll rise to the occasion.
AND THEY'LL BE THERE WHEN YOU NEED THEM MOST!
If you haven't taken the opportunity to do our LinkedIn Webinars, please consider doing that now. Build it before you need it.
