"What makes the difference is how you embark on making that connection," said Shakira about creating a good flow of connection.

To create valuable relationships, Cohen recommends:

·      Thinking of networking as farming rather than hunting

·      Recognize connections as referral partners instead of clients

·      Allot a certain number of coffee dates per month

·      Meet people at places you'll already be

·      Be intentional with whom you spend your time

"It's hard to stay connected because there's so much distraction," Cohen said. "Recognize triggers that make you feel a certain way, and get rid of things that cloud your thinking to be more productive."
