The 29% Solution

Learn to be one of the 29% of people who successfully connect with people through the power and potential of networking. You've heard the theory that we're all connected by only six degrees of separation. There was a real-world study where people were told to get certain material to someone who might know someone who would know the individual to whom the material was to be delivered. This process formed a chain of connections linking the people together. In the most successful study, 217 chains were started and 64 were completed-a success rate of only 29%. That means that 71% were not connected at all! By reading The 29% Solution , businesspeople can develop their networking skills, increase their connections, and become part of the roughly 29% of people that are, in fact, separated from the rest of the world by only six degrees or less! The 52 proactive strategies in this book will help readers focus their efforts and begin to reap the benefits of effective business networking.Misner, Ivan R. is the author of 'The 29% Solution' with ISBN 9780785223214 and ISBN 0785223215.
