My network map is bigger than I first believed. I had never thought about how big my reach was. I already knew that my largest amount of contacts would be through school, but I wasn't aware how many robotics contacts I had until I really thought about it. When doing this exercise it made me realize how many people I can call upon for assistance, which is more than I believed before doing this.
Even though I was surprised at the amount of robotics contacts I had, I am sure that I can gain many more. Every day I am contacting new people from across North America, and they are always happy to help me. It is a reciprocal relationship, because I help these people in return when they ask for it.
I also believe I can gain more contacts in the business world. As I have only had one job, my business network is fairly small. As I put myself out there more, more contacts will come.
