Why Networking Matters?

Abstract

The business bureaucracy, in general, makes the majority of the managers (both top and middle management) neglect a key matter of success (both personal and businesslike): networking. The present paper wishes to raise a series of questions regarding Herminia Ibarra’s theory referring to the networking styles of managers on the basis of her own research on a series of managers included in the „100 top young managers” catalog of Business Magazin.
