What Does a Mountain Bike Have to Do with Networking? A Lot, Actually . . .string(75) "What Does a Mountain Bike Have to Do with Networking? A Lot, Actually . . ."
In this quick video, Referral Institute® Partner & President Mike Macedonio, who is also a good friend of mine and an avid mountain biker, explains an excellent metaphor he came up with about mountain biking and networking.
Not only does Mike do a great job of explaining how aspects of mountain biking are very similar to networking, he also manages to do something that’s quite remarkable . . . he talks me into getting on a mountain bike ! 😉
After watching the video, ask yourself about your own networking group–does it have all the key components to function and gain momentum like a well-built, lasting mountain bike?
Also, I’m really interested in hearing any networking metaphors you’ve come up with during your networking career--I’ve heard some very creative ones over the years and they always get me thinking so I love hearing new ones. Please share your ideas in the comments section . . . who knows? . . . I might just be asking you to do a future guest blog!
