Networking’s for dummies, darling - The Globe and Mail: "I prefer my real ones. It’s a small handful of people. I see them often. I talk to them. I tell them what really matters. They’re the ones who know me. They hear the good and the bad and the worry and the happiness. Some have even helped with job opportunities for my children and given me tips on career-related issues.
