Kelly Hoey gets the power of networking. She knows the importance of investing in the people you connect with is a huge factor in your career success. Kelly shares networking secrets she learned when she studied the success of people in organized networks.  If you can link arms and look for that mutually beneficial win-win, networking opens up the door for stepping out of your comfort zone, owning your expertise, and finding opportunities that you might not otherwise know about.

Tune in to hear how you can build your expertise, build your network and build your bank account (yes, invest in that ‘me fund’)...

[16:46] Be good to people every day, then they'll be there for you when you need them.
