The Mission, Goals, and Beliefs of a Global Networker
Excerpted from Networking Your Way to Success by Ron Sukenick
MISSION
The mission of a Global Networker is to promote the exchange of business and personal opportunities among professional, quality conscious people.
I will conduct my business and life with integrity, and in a manner consistent with the highest quality standards of all Global Networkers around the world.
GOALS
To be one of the most productive, innovative and committed networkers in my community as measured by participation and results.
To build my networking system on traditions of integrity, reliability and commitment.
To obtain feedback from my network on an ongoing basis, since meeting and exceeding their expectations is the foundation of my networking commitment.
To expand my networking system to attain a significant presence in the community that I live and work in.
To evaluate my achievements using traditional and innovative measurements.
BELIEFS
To fulfill my networking mission and achieve my goals, I will build my networking future on the following:
I believe ... that networking associates are my first priority and that one hundred percent participation is the key to my success. For my networking system to succeed, I recognize that the more I know about other networkers, the more likely I can refer them business. Meeting and exceeding the expectations of my network is a prerequisite for facilitating network interaction.
I believe ... that the people in my network make the difference. Because my success depends on the quality of people coming into my networking system, personal selection is a critical quality decision. To attract and retain the best people, I will continue to innovate and create an environment that will support successful business and personal interaction. I will offer informative and challenging discussions, and business opportunities.
I believe ... in the Givers Gain Philosophy of doing business. The more business I can generate for other networkers, the greater success I will have in reaching my goals. I will be predicated on the concept of "what goes around, comes around." If I freely give to others, I will receive business freely as well.
I believe ... that every networker has a stake in my success or failure-we are partners in a networking system. As in any partnership, there must be trust and open communication throughout my networking system.
I believe ... that my networking system is for business people who mean business. I realize that we're linked together by common goals and we are encouraged to share ideas, information, and resources. It has proven itself time and time again that by helping others get to where they are going, we can truly experience the real meaning of success.
I believe ... that networking as a concept, can change my whole way of doing business. As a technique, it will introduce me to knowledgeable allies I didn't know I had. As a process, it knows no limits and neither will I if I use it to its fullest potential.
I believe ... that innovation is critical to achieving quality results. Successful networking systems will be those that anticipate and quickly adapt to change. I am determined to devote resources to the development of new ideas that will provide better methods for networking interaction. When innovative proposals show potential, I will be committed to acting on them promptly.
I believe ... that leadership is the key responsibility of those who want to build a successful networking system. I believe that superior organizational performance is achieved when a spirit of teamwork, enthusiasm and commitment exists. I will be accountable for achieving results and for fostering a climate that encourages people to give their best effort.
I believe ... that integrity and fair dealing must e at the heart of every business decision I make. A tradition of, and reputation for, ethical behavior is of paramount importance to my networking system family of associates. I will treat other networkers, and people that I meet for the first time with fairness and good faith, and I expect absolute honesty, integrity, and compliance of the values and ethics of the highest standing.
I believe ... in serving the community; in being a networker devoted to the common good, continuing a tradition of providing information, support and services that promote health, education and quality of life.
I believe ... in the entrepreneurial spirit. I will foster this spirit among other networkers because innovative, self-expression and prudent risk taking will provide: (1) me with a competitive advantage, and (2) my networking system with what it takes to be the best we can be.
