Patience

 Today, I had an interesting episode to share with you. Since I have to take an autorickshaw to finish my works. Nothing was confirmed in the Ola, as they were charging more than the meter. So I have to take a normal Auto (prepared myself that I have to pay a lot) informing about my places of visits. To my shock, he was so humble. Since I was new to Coimbatore, I was a bit confused about the directions. But still, he was patient to listen to me, and in a polite way, he was giving suggestions. At last, I finished all my work and came back home. To my surprise, he was very reasonable and he enquired about his drive & was as asking about the feedback. I was taken back by his way of approach to his customer. I took his number & shared it with my known circle.

As an HR, I look out for patience as 1 of the 6 qualities while recruiting a candidate. Where he/she can succeed in their professional and personal growth. The 6 qualities are 

Patience - where he or she has the ability to endure an unpleasant situation.

Business Networking

Yesterday, I had an opportunity to meet some people at Coimbatore. It was a topic on "Business Networking". I had great learning, 

* Networking is very important for personal and professional growth.

*we have to retain the relationship by maintaining a good rapport through social media.

*They were able to explain with their experiences & how they were able to get benefited out of it.

*Collaboration is also a huge part of networking.

*Find a mentor.

*Keep attending some official gatherings & outings.

* Interact with others.

* Most important skill in Business Networking is Listening. Focusing on how you can help the person you are listening to rather than on how they can help you is the first step to establishing a mutually beneficial relationship. 

The benefit of Business Networking:

* Expanding your knowledge.

*Taking advantage and prior experience of others.

* Opportunity to help other people.
