Employability & Career Development: Networking
Networking is all about people and relationships. An individual’s network of family, friends, neighbours, colleagues and associates possesses a certain ‘organic’ quality. Like a plant or a tree, at any given moment in time, a person’s network is a certain size and even has a certain health about it. What is more, it responds positively both to positive input (nourishment) and careful cultivation (management).

In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the approach to medicine was vastly different from today. Health is now recognised, at least in most European countries, as a universal right, but what was it like in the past?
