原节目
这份演示文稿的重点在于如何在当今的数字世界中改善在线社交并建立有意义的联系,因为传统的社交方式已经不再足够。演讲者强调,这并非关于积累粉丝或进行肤浅的互动,而是关于建立真实的、有价值的关系,这些关系能够带来职业发展机会和个人成长。
演讲者首先回忆了一次过去社交邮件中的失误,以此说明个性化沟通的重要性。核心信息是,随着互联网和社交媒体的兴起,社交方式已经发生了显著变化。今天,演讲者声称,我们需要一套全新的策略来进行有效的在线互动。
演讲者提出了六个改善在线人际关系的要点:
1. **联系,而非收集:** 关注关系的质量和深度,而不是简单地积累联系人。 了解联系某个人的目标,并事先对他们进行研究。 量身定制、真诚的方法能够留下深刻的第一印象。 大型语言模型(人工智能)可以帮助进行研究,但应该用于个性化,而不是完全替代真正的努力。
2. **不要以自我为中心:** 对他人表现出真诚的兴趣,让他们觉得你是理想的信息接收者。 提供清晰的目的和行动号召。 在请求通话或会议时,可以考虑将话题围绕他们的经验和专业知识展开,这样更容易让他们答应。 避免发送“你好”或“我想联系你”等缺乏引人注目的回复理由的通用消息。
3. **成为一张熟悉的面孔:** 通过与合适的人的内容进行互动,提高可见度和联系机会。 评论他们的帖子,参与在线社区和论坛,并分享你的专业知识。 在讨论中标记相关人员,以扩大你的影响范围,并展示你是一个连接者,从而增加机会。
4. **将线下活动搬到线上:** 参加活动后,跟进你所建立的联系,具体说明你们在什么事情上产生了共鸣或你们是如何认识的。 分享在活动中一起拍摄的照片,以巩固记忆和联系。 在参加活动或访问新城市之前,积极主动地联系你想要见面的人,分享在你到达那里时如何帮助他们。
5. **减少表情符号,保持思考:** 抵制发送快速表情符号回复或立即尝试向新联系人进行销售的诱惑。 将在线对话视为一场网球比赛,你应该在回复一个经过深思熟虑的、有意义的消息、问题或反馈之前,努力理解对方的观点。 确保你的互动给对方一些可以回复的内容。
6. **跟进,否则失败:** 维护关系需要持续的沟通。 关注、转发、评论、分享或向你的网络提供有用的资源,以此表明你正在考虑他们,并在实践中支持他们。 始终回复那些与你联系或回答你问题的人,表达感谢并结束对话,以便为未来的互动留出空间。
演讲者最后鼓励听众采取行动。 他们挑战每个人去联系他们一直想联系的人,可能是可以帮助他们实现目标、提供反馈的人,也可能是他们一直想跟进的人。 成功的在线社交的核心在于制定有力的外联策略,产生积极的反馈,并培养一个不断壮大的社区,从而带来宝贵的机会。 通过认识到每个屏幕背后的人性化因素,任何人都可以建立有意义的在线连接。
This presentation focuses on how to improve online networking and build meaningful connections in today's digital world, a world where traditional networking methods are no longer sufficient. The speaker emphasizes that it's not about amassing followers or superficial interactions, but about establishing authentic, valuable relationships that can lead to career opportunities and personal growth.
The speaker starts by recalling a past networking email faux pas, illustrating the importance of personalized communication. The core message is that networking has evolved significantly with the rise of the internet and social media. Today, the speaker claims we need a new playbook for effective online engagement.
The speaker presents six key tips for improving online connections:
1. **Connect, Don't Collect:** Focus on the quality and depth of relationships rather than simply accumulating connections. Understand the goal for reaching out to someone and do your research on them beforehand. A tailored, authentic approach creates a strong first impression. Large language models (AI) can assist in research, but should be used for personalization rather than as a complete substitute for genuine effort.
2. **Don't Make It About You:** Show genuine interest in others, making them feel like the ideal recipient of your message. Provide a clear purpose and call to action. When requesting a call or meeting, consider making the topic about their experience and expertise, making it easier for them to say yes. Avoid generic messages like "Hello" or "I'd like to connect" without a compelling reason for a response.
3. **Become a Familiar Face:** Increase visibility and chances of connection by engaging with the content of the right people. Comment on their posts, participate in online communities and forums, and share your expertise. Tag relevant people in discussions to broaden your reach and demonstrate that you are a connector, leading to increased opportunities.
4. **Bring In-Person Online:** After attending an event, follow up with specifics about what you bonded over or how you met. Share photos taken together at the event to solidify the memory and connection. Before attending events or visiting a new city, proactively reach out to people you want to meet, sharing how you can help them while you are there.
5. **Lose the Emojis and Be Thoughtful:** Resist the temptation to send quick emoji responses or immediately try to sell to a new connection. Treat online conversations like a game of tennis, where you should aim to understand the other person's perspective before responding with a thoughtful, meaningful message, question, or feedback. Ensure that your interactions give the other person something they can respond to.
6. **Follow Up or Fail:** Maintaining relationships requires consistent communication. Follow, retweet, comment, share, or provide helpful resources to your network as a way of showing you are thinking of them and supporting them practically. Always respond to those who connect with you or answer your questions, expressing gratitude and closing off the conversation to allow for future engagement.
The speaker concludes by encouraging the audience to take action. They challenge everyone to reach out to someone they've been wanting to connect with, someone who can help them achieve their goals, provide feedback, or someone they've been meaning to follow up with. The essence of successful online networking lies in crafting strong outreach, generating positive responses, and fostering a growing community that brings valuable opportunities. By recognizing the human element behind every screen, anyone can build meaningful connections online.
