Networking, relationships and home working. Networking isn't just about social media and online activity. It is also about staying in touch with friends, having chance meetings, such as in the lift at work, while also getting involved in external activities. Don’t forget to address risk. Plans are helpful, but real life may look different. So, it is necessary to identify what may go wrong and suggest how to mitigate or resolve the situation quickly, efficiently, and inexpensively.
