The Pro-networking
generation is
out for more fulfilling accomplishments in life. Re-asserting their commitment
to achieve more by the time they clock 35 years, they have determinedly chosen
to embrace networking and the important bridging role networking plays towards
the achievement of these targets in today's business and social environment
that is characterized by an ever increasing world population, diminishing
opportunities and scarcity of resources. Seemingly, everyone is faced with the
daunting task of solving the networking
equation and the dilemma to bridge the gaps in a race to secure more
opportunities in the face of ever shrinking resources social and capital wise.
The new
breed of go getters recognizes that there is no longer a pie left for those
that come second place. In this highly competitive society no one even recalls
there ever existed a second spot for those that dare come second. This view
point many not be most popular among many but the rush to pro actively network
is on. Pro-activity in multiple dimensions; not only interpreted to mean
sitting behind desks and engaging people on social networks but embracing
networking as a tool and consciously engaging through physical meet ups to
refresh perspective and broaden their social sphere of influence.
This
active society segment has found it more amusing in enjoying the convenience of
real time chatting and the marvel of
instant feedback compared to other prior generations but even with the rise of
this multiple digital channels and avenues for networking, they have also
encountered a fair share of hurdles in the contemporary networking context.
Through our interaction with technology in the modern day and within our
diversified roles at the work place, we find ourselves engulfed with different
people in various circles, especially so determined by how we network. Dr.
James Mwangi, C.E.O Equity Bank in an article published in the News Daily asserts that, we are
living in an age of networks, not hierarchies where knowledge and wisdom must
be distributed, rather than contained among select few.
