There is nothing worse to me than a contrived or artificial networking environment. I have to agree that the best, most effective, and most comfortable networking is that which you do un-rehearsed and when you are just being yourself. If you are a genuine, interested person that is the best networking opportunity you could ever give your business.

I completely agree that to be an effective networker, you need to be genuine. Luckily you can usually tell when someone isn’t genuine.

And you are right, it is always best to pass on details without expecting anything in return. Any thing on top of that is just a bonus.

To be a successful networker you have to be genuine. Anybody can pass on other people’s details and do “favours” but this can backfire and it only really works if the intention is to do it without expecting something in return.

The bonus is that the favour often will be returned anyway.
