🎁 Holiday travel is here, with it delays and crowded airports.😫 Instead of frustration and stress, why not use this time to your advantage 🤔, with a smile and being human? 😁 Remember when networking on planes was a thing? Now, everyone seems to be in their own little world. 🙈 But think about it: you have hours of potential connection time just waiting to be tapped into! 💡 I've personally made some game-changing connections on planes – deals closed, friendships formed, and stories for days! 🤯 So ditch the noise-canceling headphones, put on a friendly face, and see what happens. ✨ Here are a few tips to make the most of your in-flight networking: ✈️ Start with a simple hello: A warm greeting can work wonders. 🗺️ Find common ground: Maybe it's a shared destination or a book you both love. 🧳 Be respectful of their time: Not everyone is up for a chat, and that's okay. 🤝 Exchange info strategically: If the conversation flows, connect on LinkedIn, electronically, or old school swap business cards. You never know who you might meet at 30,000 feet! 😉
Love this perspective! ✈️ Some of my best connections happened in unexpected places, including flights. A simple hello can open doors to incredible opportunities. Thanks for the reminder to stay open and approachable, even at 30,000 feet. 🌟 Who knows, the next game-changing conversation could be just a seat away!
Brian Jue great reminder, chatting with fellow passengers is definitely a growth area for me. I’ll need to ditch the ear buds, call me Chatty Kathy 😆
Love this perspective, especially because I love airports, new adventures always await! Safe travels, friend! ✈️✨ Brian Jue
Great perspective on turning travel hassles into opportunities! The idea of rekindling in-flight networking is clever, especially in our increasingly digital world.
You’re absolutely right, Brian Jue. I do appreciate the downtime on planes though.
Who knew that humans could be human!
I love this perspective, it’s such a refreshing way to approach travel during the holiday chaos!
Brian, thanks for putting this out there!
Airplane networking – you never know who you’ll meet 30,000 feet in the air! Make the most of it.Brian Jue
