		<description>Sounds like this is the New Paradigm for business! I love it! The old ways feels so &quot;off&quot; and wrong for me. Connecting, yes, that definitely appeals to me and is what it is all about!
Thanks Melanie!!</description>

		<description>Hi, great post - for me connecting means listening, real listening without planning you next question or response.
Connecting before educating is so good and I have working on that for some time.
Thanks , Garry.</description>

		<description>Al: Glad to have you back. 

Maria: Awesome insights into revolutionizing networking. Wish more people &quot;got it.&quot;

Sheri/Amy: Love hearing more ideas of ways to lead with your magic. Live connections are priceless...and people remember who you are being. 

Which reminds me...time to finish my own follow up from last week&#039;s SANG event!</description>

		<description>So simple and true!

I&#039;m looking for better ways to follow up with people. Email seems to be loosing it&#039;s appeal...everyone just get&#039;s too many emails.

You certainly do lead with your magic Melanie!</description>

		<description>Great post Melanie!  I too often feel the same lack of energy after going to a group networking type of event and never really put my finger on why.  I just thought it was because I was more introverted, and although that may be part of it, I think what you have said in your post hits home.  I am much better connecting with a few people and hopefully at events I find the right people who share my same ethics and passion and then if that person has a need I can fulfill...well that&#039;s the icing on the cake.

Thanks for sharing Melanie!</description>
