HOW YOU KNOW WHO YOU KNOW

Social Chemistry will transform the way you think about networking. Based on insights from neuroscience, psychology, and network analytics, Marissa King shows how anyone can build a social network that will enhance relationships and work life. High quality connections in your social network strongly predict cognitive functioning, emotional resilience, and satisfaction at work. A well structured network is likely to boost the quality of your ideas and your pay. Social connections are the lifeblood of our health and happiness and have an effect on our likelihood of dying prematurely. The three basic network types are defined so readers can see the role they are already playing as an Expansionist, Broker, or Convener. This network decoder enables readers to align their network style to their life plans and values.
