Making connection is a key for entering our market place.
Whether we start up a new business or we want to invest in a market or we want to source products, there are “dots” to connect before supply meets demand and business transaction can happen.
A leader of a community organization ever told me one of the precious thing in business – A connection. An introduction I did for him with a CEO of multinational company, has made his objective eventuated to get funding for helping the poor and disadvantaged youths.
On the other hand, many of my corporate friends said they found it difficult to find excellent local partner(s) to implement their social investment.
