Resumen del Editor

Keith Ferrazzi is a master networker who claims his secret is merely reaching out to other people. And what distinguishes highly successful people from everyone else is the way they use the power of relationships, so that everyone wins. In Never Eat Alone, Ferrazzi presents the specific steps and mindset he uses to connect with the thousands of individuals in his Rolodex.

Ferrazzi's form of connecting to people is based on generosity, helping friends connect with other friends. He distinguishes genuine relationship-building from the crude, desperate glad-handling usually associated with "networking". In the course of the book, Ferrazzi outlines the timeless strategies shared by the world's most connected individuals, from Katherine Graham to Bill Clinton, Vernon Jordan to the Dalai Lama.

Chock full of specific advice on handling rejection, getting past gatekeepers and more, Never Eat Alone is destined to take its place as an inspirational classic.

"[A] useful volume....His clear and well-articulated steps for getting access, getting close and staying close make for a substantial leg up." (Publishers Weekly)
"Ferrazzi presents a whirlwind of ideas to widen your circle of contacts that goes way beyond the usual stale concepts of 'networking'." (Booklist)

Loved This Book!

Positive success that is easily contagious. Wonderful, fresh perspective that translates throughout any industry in a recipe for success.

Highly recommend!!!!

Great book; not may favorite narration

I enjoyed this book, but was not the biggest fan of the narration. However, after a few minutes of listening I was able to get used to it after each stopping point. I would have have recommended it to friends and associates.

Great book on networking/connecting with people

Learn how to connect with people and grow your business. Ferazzi will teach you how to be confident and go after what you want in a respectable manner. He lists methods for reaching even the most un-reachable people and describes how to turn small talk into business deals. This is a superb marketing and personal interaction tool.

excellent all around

good narration, incredible information. even if you think you know this stuff, it reinforces it plus gives you a lot of information you find yourself wondering why you haven't already implemented. excellent.

AWFUL NARRATOR!

I really wanted to listen to this book but the narrator is just awful. The pace is incredibly slow...2 second pauses between words. It sounds like he's reading to special ed.

The Only Regret is not Reading This Sooner

This book is an absolute eye-opener for me. It challenged my thoughts about political relationships in college at work and more. It offered me greater sense of purpose and fulfillment through building contacts into an intimate network.
Maybe I wanted a different narrator at the start, but within the first chapter I was wowed by the whole experience of this download.

A 10!!!

This is a MUST read for anyone who wants to move their career forward. If you are looking for a way to catapault yourself 2-3 levels within 1-2 years, you MUST read this book. It holds so many secrets and best practices for building your network and getting you in all the "tough" doors.

Enjoy!

excellent book on networking

really reframed the whole concept from some kind of strategy to building real relationships with people

An essential listen

you get so tied up in day to day activities its good to be reminded of certain social skills.

Great stuff, a bit long-winded

Lots of great ideas here about growing your network personally and professionally. It could be a bit shorter and communicate the same basic substance. Be sure to set your iPod reading speed to "Faster." ;)
