This is a very sincere book. I feel that I have never been very good at cultivating connections, and this book provides a good practical method. The knowledge and information provided in this book is far greater than "how to make friends with people who are better than you". The most critical gain is the self-awareness of exploring your own strengths and the altruistic thinking of helping others. It is applicable to everyone, even if you are not good at communication, as long as you use it, you can quickly have extensive and high-quality connections, and use the energy of the connections you have to quickly achieve your life goals and ideals.

Socializing upwards, as the name suggests, gains more popularity and indirectly gains resources. Introverts are lacking in this aspect, so if we want to change, we need to slowly step out of our own world, interact with friends and strangers, meet offline with friends regularly to chat about the current situation, and obtain solutions from different perspectives. When you meet a stranger for the first time, introduce yourself confidently, remember the other person's name, characteristics and experience, so that you can start the topic next time and gradually become friends. We are not afraid of saying the wrong thing, and we are not afraid of the eyes of others. Every time we make a fool of ourselves is an opportunity for us to make progress and improve ourselves. Others' opinions and evaluations can be ignored if they are not facts. To maintain a friendship, you need to meet offline regularly, not be afraid of trouble others, and enhance your relationship through this kind of interaction. Appropriate giving of gifts represents emotion. Remember to talk lightly and talk deeply, which will bring disaster to yourself. In the process of communicating with leaders, you can interact more, participate more, ask them where they came from, and be on the same page with the leader, you can learn more, and report your work regularly, the leader will feel at ease and can use it with confidence.

Having connections can make the journey smoother and further, and even give you many different paths to take. This book talks about many practical methods and is operable. Be proactive and take advantage of various opportunities to meet people, such as meals, activities, meetings, etc. Pay attention to details, sincerely care, and perform daily maintenance. You must not be afraid of troublesome others, but you must also be able to provide value to others. You must be prepared before important conversations, understand the other party, your own needs, strengths and abilities, and prepare topics. ... The road is long and long.

There is a very popular concept that the excellent people you know are your network resources. Many of our jobs are almost always known from our connections. Through upward social interaction, you can build network resources, explore your potential, gain opportunities for life progress, and finally get the secret to success and realize your own life value. We all think that people who are better than us will look down on ourselves, but in fact they have no time to look down on us. When we need help, they are actually happy to provide help.

As the saying goes, "Many friends lead to many paths." Network resources are very important for us to be promoted and find a good job. For us, making a variety of friends every day can not only enrich our knowledge, but also may not necessarily be the last straw to save us at a desperate moment. The author of this book has been in the workplace for more than 20 years. She combines her practical experience in Chinese and American companies with the summary and insights brought by her business school experience to help us integrate our connections into high-quality resources in our lives.

I am very glad that I read this book when I was forty years old. It broke some of my inherent perceptions in the first half of my life and started to think about what to do best. In the past, I always heard people talking about connections, saying that all the friends and acquaintances I knew were connections, but I didn't take it seriously. The negative thinking formed since I was a child prevented me from seeing the strengths of others. My jealousy also prevented me from appreciating the advantages of others. My inferiority complex prevented me from connecting and socializing with others. Thank you for this book that helped me open my mind. It is easy to understand and very good!

In today's information age, there is a widely recognized concept, "Who you know is more important than what you know." In modern society, the importance of connections needs no more elaboration. The existence of information barriers blocks the upward path for many people. Therefore, having connections and leveraging the power of high-end connections to obtain growth opportunities and realize the value of life is a necessary learning method in the contemporary information society. I particularly like the core idea mentioned by the author in cultivating the power of people, "retaining a child-like curiosity". Only when we are truly interested in the world and others, eager to see a wider world through communication with others, and through a deep understanding of others and understanding their essence, can others recognize us in the same way.

The book is very well explained, and the key points are implemented throughout the text, such as initiative, value, help, attraction, etc., And it also roughly talks about the direction to take at key points. Overall, it is a good introductory book on human and trace relationships. The disadvantage is that it is too broad and has many examples. The answer can only be determined by depth, and requires high execution ability of the reader.

This book provides many practical methods and suggestions, which will benefit people a lot. I especially like the point of view in the book about "creating value for others", as the author said, "The essence of connections is value exchange." The book also quotes a sentence, "Whether a person is successful in his career or happy in life, 80% is attributed to getting along with others." This sentence profoundly reveals the importance of connections. All in all, this is a great book worth reading!

Very practical and beneficial

It has guiding significance for those who are new to the workplace. For experienced people, they will sort out the management of daily interpersonal relationships.

Very good and full of useful information. I'm just a bit utilitarian and want to get to know everyone, but in the end they don't want to talk to you.
