A recent survey of more than 2,000 businessmen and women revealed
that 47 percent of professionals believe they have lost a contract or a
client because they didn't have enough face-to-face meetings.
Nowaday is a digital world. However, the firm handshake from a prospective
client, the touch of a product about to hit the market, the peer-to-peer
exchange of ideas working to solve a big issue—none of these can be
delivered to an inbox or posted to a social news feed.
It's not just about meeting with existing clients and signing new
contracts, though. The face-to-face industry lays the foundation for
career growth. It's where casual meeting, greeting and handing out
business cards translate to hiring new candidates, finding new
collaborative minds and acquiring life-long mentors.
The digital world will continue to transform the ways we can stay
connected, but those connections need more than a Wi-Fi signal and a
webcam to come to life.
