The most recent networking book I have discovered (through a 3rd party introduction to a fellow I had been wanting to meet - who in turn recommended it) is
"Endless Referrals" by Bob Burg. After having lunch with the fellow I had been introduced to, I immediately ran out and bought it - devoured it - and loved it! I was so impressed I e-mailed the author, had a phone conversation and less than 60 days later he came to Denver for a joint-venture workshop on effective networking for a crowd of 150 people.
This book is now standard issue to anyone who joins the referral groups in the Greenwood Village Chamber of Commerce where I serve as Executive Director.
We are already in conversation to have Bob return to Denver later this Spring.
