Using the G.A.I.N.S. Exchange to Connect More Effectively
Sometimes one of the most difficult parts of networking is getting the conversation started and really engaging people so they are genuinely interested in talking and networking with you.
In this short video, Penny Georgevich explains how to effectively connect with people by using the G.A.I.N.S. (Goals, Accomplishments, Interests, Networks, Skills) Exchange (also referred to as the G.A.I.N.S. Profile)–particularly when it comes to the are of “Interests.”
If you’ve used the G.A.I.N.S. Exchange as a tactic when networking, please share your experience with it in the comments section–how effective did you find it to be?
Loved this video. As Education coordinator I found this topic very useful. I will use the techinques mention and teach them to my team.
THAT was truly useful for me. A great brush-up and insight for me to be better at introductions and getting the conversation flowing… Thank you…
