The Power of Asking "How Can I Help?"
Imagine walking into a networking event feeling not dread, but genuine excitement. What if instead of focusing on what others can do for you, you asked, "How can I help?" This simple question transforms networking from a transactional chore into an opportunity for authentic connection. In a world where we're digitally connected yet increasingly isolated, this mindset shift is revolutionary. Despite our hyperconnected lives, Americans' social networks have shrunk by nearly one-third since the 1980s, creating a loneliness epidemic that affects our health, wellbeing, and work performance. Research shows lonely workers are less productive, more likely to quit, and experience higher burnout rates-a situation the pandemic only worsened. The traditional networking approach gets it backward. By separating our "work self" from our "personal self," we create superficial connections that prevent us from bringing our whole selves to professional interactions. The most successful business relationships mirror the authenticity of personal ones-they emerge from supporting others, amplifying underrepresented voices, and using business as a force for positive change.
