    Job Security Is Dead! Are You?

    Those words are from Harvey Mackay, marketing guru and business person extraordinaire, and probably one of the world’s foremost authorities on networking.

    You know, I spend a LOT of time at networking events. That’s because I know that to achieve success, professionally as well as personally, you need to have a network. And you have to be a bridge-builder, not a fence-builder—and certainly NOT a bridge-burner, like Ted in the following true story that was told to me recently.

    While attending a big company event, my friend Marcie was approached by Ted, who made a noticeable attempt at engaging her in conversation. He was a sales rep who had been trying very hard over the last five years to get more business from the company hosting the event.

Back then when you visited your local hardware store, you spoke to the hardware man over a counter, I say man deliberately, who would then walk into their stores area, try to find your requirements from a very limited choice.

    He said he was very happy he’d been given the opportunity to attend this private party to mark the transfer of power from the owner to one of his kids. Marcie was a bit nervous and was nursing a bad cold, so she was not in a mood to talk much.

    After about 15 minutes of getting the ‘cold shoulder’, the frustrated Ted smiled and excused himself with the words, “It was a pleasure meeting you.” And as he was walking away, he muttered, “Yeah, about as much f… fun as a trip to the f… dentist ...” loudly enough for Marcie to overhear.

    A short while later later, the CEO walked on stage and invited his daughter, Marcie, to join him so he could proceed with the ceremony.
