Reconnecting with business/work friends
I had the wonderful opportunity to reconnect with one of my business network friends I had not seen for nearly four years last week. It was so inspiring to catch up on our stories. He also gave me a lovely compliment, stating that I had not lost my passion and commitment to newcomers.
It only takes three or four communications per year to maintain our business/work network friends - so I would really encourage you to have a chat with someone special you have not seen for a few years very soon.
You can also forward this email on to anyone who may find the information useful.
Enjoy your week and cheers for now,
