Journal Task - Jool's Took a Stance

When Jool's says:
The essential point of networking is human contact. Business has killed networking by making it something for the career orientated person.

I say:
Networking is an essential part of any persons career no matter who you are, whether a student or a manager.
Business hasn't killed networking. Encouraging people to network to establish contacts is key to improving and making a success of a business.
On a smaller scale networking is still a good and working medium to help anyone further themselves, in or out of the world of business.

from Jim Shorthose - Fish, Horses and other Animals
Good networking can mean you do not necessarily need to buy that new piece of kit, or learn that new skill right away as you know someone who can help out in exchange for a return favour. This makes creativity and business quicker, cheaper and means you can compete for business when it is strategically smart to do so.

Good networking inevitably brings greater capacity to work well in cross- disciplinary creativity

Good networking can allow you to access great sources of mutual teaching, learning and informal professional development in all sorts of unseen ways.

Developing networks brings prolonged, intimate and trusting creative relationships that are often good for creativity, for business and for a whole host of other 'emotional' reasons.
