If you work, then you’re all too familiar with networking. But do you network to make a sale or to truly make a difference? In this weeks’ episode of Consuming Careers, I’m meeting with Ricky Steele who has invested his life in investing in others. Ricky has become one of the most well known and respected business developers in the Southeast, but not without significant personal sacrifice. Ricky not only shares his approach to networking, but also his calling for pursuing relationships with authentic empathy and generosity.
