I had the honor to speak on a panel at Global Entrepreneurship Week KC.
What did we talk about? ✨
How to Leverage Partnerships & Networking to 10X Your Business Growth. ✨
When you first read that title what do you think we talked about???✨
Strategies to get ahead??? Leveraging someone else?? What am *I* going to gain here from this partnership?? What am *I* going to gain from networking??? ✨
Nope. That’s not at all what we talked about. ✨
When I was asked “why do you think people fail at networking and partnerships?” I answered in the following way…..✨
“I think people struggle because they make it about themselves, when it never actually is.”✨
People want the glamour and success of business but here’s the truth about what businesses actually are. Businesses exist to fill a NEED or provide a desired SERVICE. ✨
Therefore, if your approach is “who can I serve today??” Your success is inevitable, no matter how long it takes to sort out the details. ✨
Service to others ALWAYS comes back to you. ALWAYS. (Often times in ways that you weren’t expecting and that are beyond your imagination). ✨
So, my advice, leverage partnerships by SERVING your people first, without attachment to the outcome- not because you’re expecting something in return. You won’t be disappointed I promise. 💕
