What exactly is networking?
Think of networking as sowing seeds for each new person you meet. These seeds can grow into relationships that will help you in the future. It's like making friends, but with an emphasis on how you can help each other in life or work.
Why do we need networking?
Networking is like having a personalized support team in your corner. On a personal level, networking can lead to new friends, hobbies, or opportunities for personal growth. On a professional level, networking can lead to job opportunities, mentoring, partnerships and a broader understanding of one's industry or field.
New job openings: networking can lead to new job opportunities. These jobs may not be advertised anywhere else. It's like having a friend who knows you're looking for a new bike and lets you know when they see it on sale.
Learning new things: networking is a great way to learn new things about your field or interests. It's like being in a book club where everyone shares interesting books they've read.
Support and advice: networking can give you a group of people who support you and give you advice. It's like having a team of coaches helping you get better at sport.

The past, present and future of networking
Networking is not a new concept; it has been practiced in various forms throughout human history. In ancient times, networking was limited to one's immediate community or tribe. The advent of the postal system, the telephone, and eventually the Internet dramatically changed the networking landscape, allowing people to communicate across vast distances.
The future of networking lies in the digital realm. With the rise of social media and messengers, we can now communicate 24/7 from anywhere in the world. In the future, we can expect to see even more innovative networking platforms, such as virtual reality networking events or networking algorithms driven by artificial intelligence that can help us find the most appropriate touchpoints based on our interests, goals, and professional backgrounds.

How do people communicate today?
People communicate in many ways today. One common method is to meet in person at meetings or conferences. For example, technical professionals often socialize at events such as the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
Online networking is also popular. Social media platforms are used to meet new people and maintain existing contacts. Industry forums, such as GitHub for software developers, also offer great networking opportunities.
Finally, joining clubs, volunteering, or attending corporate events are other ways for people to network. A budding entrepreneur might join a local business group, for example. Regardless of the method, the key is to be friendly, sincere and interested.
According to LinkedIn's 2022 report, more than 700 million people have used the platform for networking, and that number is expected to grow exponentially. According to a survey conducted by the Adler Group, a staggering 85% of job openings are filled through networking. The same study also found that networking is 6.7 times more effective than using online job boards.
The future of networking looks even brighter. With the continued digitalization of our lives, we can expect to see more and more people going online every year.
