Author Porter Gale is an international speaker and former VP of Marketing for Virgin America. In her new book YOUR NETWORK IS YOUR NET WORTH: Unlock the Hidden Power of Connections for Wealth, Success, and Happiness in the Digital Age (Atria Books; June 4, 2013; ISBN: 978-1-4516-8875-7) Gale introduces a values-based type of networking that builds on your passions and values and connects you with others who share them.
Gone are the days of climbing over our colleagues to get what we want. According to Gale, “The new way to network and build your true net worth is about charting your own course, living life based on your passions, and being the best you can be.” By following her clear steps and ideas, Gale shows how to creatively build our networks to achieve happiness, success, and true wealth. She includes illustrations, exercises and real life stories (including her own) that show how today’s digitally enabled approach to networking can help improve your productivity and potential for happiness and future success.
