Does networking, new German networks, at all sense, or is it rather meaningless time-use? What happens when people are talking about selling? And what do people think when they make compliments that are not? A gloss.
It was at an informal reception after an informal talk about marketing strategies. Sabine stood in her blue trousers suit in the area and crashed on her bread roll.
Paul stood by casually and praised her lecture, which Sabine Morgenluft smelled and told Paul about her great management consultancy and whether he didn't need a concept to double his sales.
Paul then hypocritically hypocritically expressed interest and told Sabine about his newly founded PR agency and how strongly her business consultancy could benefit from a coherent PR concept. What prompted Sabine to bounce back on her buns again. Days later, Paul called to Sabine, who had incautiously given him his business card so as not to appear completely rude.
The talk is called networking, also networks. In the 80 years, the stylistic-philosopher Wolfsschneider still declared that the word network in German was to be avoided. While the English net meant only concrete ones such as spider webs and baseball nets and one for Abstracta on network evade, the German speaking could also say net, if he mean the social network.
Schneider's explanations have helped little. In the meantime, the Germans are also networking to make the loop: I network, you network, he / she / it networks or I also network. Striking is the busy, hard-working and hard-working. You do not just weave your net because it's fun, but the net is work, drudgery, blood, sweat, and tears.
Which brings us back to Paul and Sabine. They sweat, they strive, they wriggle and do not know exactly, whether they are the spider that ties the net or the trapped insect. Of course, Sabine did not like the talk, because nothing interests her, between us, less than marketing strategies and nothing hates her more than blue pantsuits. Of course, Paul did not like to hear the lecture, because he has somehow heard all about marketing strategies and the melody of the marketers seems to him as uniform as the songs in the final round of the Eurovision Song Contest.
In addition, he just found Sabine's lecture especially bland, but all this is of no use, on fade lectures just stupid compliments must follow to sell. Everyone is a product, and every conversation is an acquisition attempt and every day is a market day.
Sure, relationships are wonderful, and it's certainly good to know people who can do one or the other good, which you can not do yourself, so that you can do it for money or as a favor. Everything good and beautiful. But in the world of networkers there are business card parties: contacts are made, no matter who, no matter why. The networkers have nothing to offer, nothing to say, nothing to think about. The thought haunts her mind that vitamin B is important, haha, and that one does not know what to do with contact again.
Asked: Has Sabine a) Paul a business-advisory strategy, b) Paul Sabine of his PR concept can convince, and have Paul and Sabine c) at least slept together? A) and B) are unlikely, because Paul does not have any money to pay a business consultation and Sabine has no money for a PR concept. C) is already more likely, because there is nothing else in the world of the network as a networker, and because ultimately even in the case of a close interpersonal, it is only about marketing, supply and demand, and if there is little supply, one knows this.
After a few weeks, Paul and Sabine have met again in a trendy gym where everyone who also has talks about marketing and listening is going. Sabine and Paul were very much surprised at the chance to meet again, and asked each other how they were doing so. Sabine found that Paul looks quite usable in shorts and how the story unfolded is left to the general soap-opaque fantasy. One thing, however, must be said: Paul and Sabine did not talk about marketing or PR on that evening.
Dear readers,

What this book can do for you: You support certified climate protection projects, you quickly receive compact information and checklists from experts (overview in the table of contents) as well as advice that has been tried and tested in practice, which also leads to success step by step thanks to add-on. Because unwanted loneliness and social isolation affect many people of all ages from single in the home office to pensioners without a family. That sounds absurd in a time of unimagined leisure opportunities. The Internet is also only of limited use as an aid because lonely people in particular can lose themselves very well here. The problem: If you feel lonely and isolated, you quickly find yourself in an endless downward spiral of poor contact, social isolation and depression, from which it is difficult to find your way out. This book shows how it works anyway.
In addition, our unique publishing concept offers you many best practice tips and examples from successful managers, entrepreneurs and other exciting personalities.

Envy is actually a nasty feeling. It affects everyone once, especially when you are lonely. In the beginning you don't even notice it, but then it has eaten itself into people and in the end you are completely devoured by it.
For a few months now I have been waking up to the subject of envy, wakened by my own experience - for myself as well as for others. And I found: There are differences between small everyday envy, for example on the new chic top from colleague A or the new car from colleague B, but also far more dangerous forms that are often characterized by the dynamization of such everyday jealousy.
When the envious admiration of the beautiful top slowly grows into the envy of the figure, the performance, and other areas, it does not take long for the actually positive element of envy of admiration to add a negative moment of envy.
This is the beginning of the speeches, the first remarks and the environment contributes or dampens the opinion. In any case, however, a development takes place which, without the active involvement of the persons affected and above all in secret, can lead to a distorted image.
