Gaining New Insights on Networking – Your Network is Your Net Worth

A Conversation with Porter Gale, Brian Solis and Kiip CEO, Brian Wong

Less about serendipity and power plays, networking is about building more in-depth relationships that reflect your passions, the meaningful connections to help you manifest your purpose.

The first 100 AMA members who attended the August 13th program at the Kiip headquarters on Folsom Street got a signed copy of Porter Gale’s new book Your Network is Your Net Worth. With the books generously donated by SF’s Rocket Fuel, the 125 attending AMA members also got a chance to hear former VP of marketing at Virgin America and sought-after speaker and entrepreneur Porter Gale speak about how networking has changed from a transactional game, to a more in-depth and transformational process. Porter was joined by Brian Solis and Kiip CEO, Brian Wong, who provided amusing anecdotes and entertaining insights to illustrate new and different ways to network. She encouraged us all to focus on our passions and reorganize our networking around our own values and beliefs to build lasting relationships and experience personal transformation.
