Speaking of Impact Bob DePasquale

Networking is not about getting business cards.
It’s about giving your time to people. You know people love to talk about their lives and work. I have 5 ways for you lean into the giving mindset while you network.
These things come from a thousand networking opportunities I’ve had but I know it’s different these days. Much is done online and through your social profiles. Most of the old “tricks of the trade” don’t apply anymore but giving is always a good idea.
Here’s how you do it well regardless of if it’s online or IRL.
Have a generous day.

Love is the catalyst for many other things in life and business.
I wouldn’t consider myself a romantic, but I do find love in a lot of places.
It signifies commitment, compassion, and appreciation among other things. Even of them are great characteristics for a leader and a business culture.
You can’t be generous without a form of love.
I thought a lot about love recently because of a wedding I attended. It made me think of why there was such a big celebration and why so many people were involved. Was it just for the food and dancing?
Here are some thoughts on how the things we celebrate at weddings can help us grow our businesses.
Have a generous day.

You can’t expect everything that is unexpected.
If generosity will make you “rich” and the “riches are in the niches”…
…then generosity is in all the niches.
Great leaders are able to understand the work experience of their people. They might have a prominent leadership style but they are able to adapt to others’ needs. They can’t rely on a niche style to get them through.
A niched leader is a limited leader.
I used the transitive property to identify that you should be able to morph into each team members unique, niched, psyche to help them have the most enjoyable work experience. In other words, you can and need to use generosity in all the niches to build the workplace culture of growth you desire.
Have a generous day.

You can’t expect everything that is unexpected.
I believe strongly in the virtue of resilience. It’s critical for results in business and in life.
Resilience is not expressed in times where the expected has happened. The key to expecting the unexpected is not planning for every possible scenario. This is impossible and crippling for your people and your businesses.
Instead, you have to expect to “feel” the unexpected from time to time. These are the times when you express resilience.
Take the time to plan what you can but don’t sacrifice you and your team’s ability to react and think on the fly.
Have a generous day.

Listening is the #1 skill a generous leader needs.
There are many types of listening.  So many have been studied that it can be overwhelming to learn about this critical skill.
I've noticed that certain types of listening are of high important to servant leaders and generous cultures.  I did some research and came up with 4 different kinds of listening that I felt were at the top of the list. 
There are plenty of other kinds and I encourage you to research on your own and learn which forms are significant to you.  Please share them with me as you like.
For now, you can start with these four and build a culture of generosity in your business.
Have a generous day that's full of good listening.

I don’t recommend gambling but this is a bet you should take.
There are plenty of reasons to include generosity in your workplace culture but I have 5 that came to mind immediately when I thought of this topic.
They key to all of them is that they are best experienced in community. This is why cultures of generosity attract top talent and loyal customers.
Think about these things as you try to develop systems and processes in our business. My primary recommendation is that you start from the beginning or as early as possible. It should be part of the culture as people come on board. In fact, they should be overwhelmed by its presence upon engagement.
I’d love to know your experience with these things. Be sure to let me know.
Have a generous day.
