From data to
decisions, turning
insights into impact
Early in my LinkedIn journey, I was obsessed with growing my network.
It didn’t matter who you were.
Sales rep? Connection request sent.
Banker? Sent.
Accountant? Sent.
Fisherman? Probably sent too.
In my mind, a larger network meant greater opportunity.
Then one day, I received a message from a senior leader based in Europe. I don’t recall the exact country, but I remember his words clearly:
“I have received your connection request. Could you please let me know how you believe I could be of value to you?”
That question stopped me.
Not because it was aggressive.
Not because it was dismissive.
But because it was precise.
