We’ve been talking about refreshing your networking list, and getting started on a brand new professional foot this Spring! Internal networking is not often talked about, as we assume most network to get out of their current company or position.

Networking inside your company walls, especially when it’s a large company, can help you secure a longer-lasting, and diversified, career. Are there roles you may be interested in in other departments? Have you been thinking of exploring another facet of your company? Meeting the heads or members of other departments can help answer your questions, and make yourself visible to them as well.

My $0.05: When it comes to networking, start with what’s right under your nose. Ask your boss who you could talk to if trying to experience another side of the business. Use your company’s organizational charts to pinpoint key people you could connect with. Ask your colleagues too. Your next great opportunity may just be down the hall!

Do you network inside your own company?
