Keith Ferrazzi is a master networker who claims his secret is merely reaching out to other people. And what distinguishes highly successful people from everyone else is the way they use the power of relationships, so that everyone wins. In Never Eat Alone, Ferrazzi presents the specific steps and mindset he uses to connect with the thousands of individuals in his Rolodex.

Ferrazzi's form of connecting to people is based on generosity, helping friends connect with other friends. He distinguishes genuine relationship-building from the crude, desperate glad-handling usually associated with "networking". In the course of the book, Ferrazzi outlines the timeless strategies shared by the world's most connected individuals, from Katherine Graham to Bill Clinton, Vernon Jordan to the Dalai Lama.

Chock full of specific advice on handling rejection, getting past gatekeepers and more, Never Eat Alone is destined to take its place as an inspirational classic.

I haven’t read the book. However it’s hard to get past the fact that I purchased this thinking it was new and turns out it’s used. Super disappointing. Someone wrote their name in it and then used white out to cover it.

Great read especially in the society we are currently living in. I feel some people will read this and immediately think these principals wont work, to them I say stop being so pessimistic! Not every book is for everyone but I loved it!

I don't normally read networking books fully - found most of them boring by the second chapter. Hard to put this one down. Super practical and full of real life stories of wins and fails by Ferrazzi. Excellent.

Many useful lessons for successful business relationship management

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on January 13, 2014

Verified Purchase

The author - Keith Ferrazzi - is one of those 'super connectors', or put differently, one of the people who always know everybody and who get ahead more through networking and interpersonal excellence than through analytical prowess. In this book he packages up lots of useful advice on how to transition from leading a wallflower existence towards achieving more through cooperative efforts.

This is not to say that reading of the book will per se make you a networking wizard but at least many of the necessary steps for getting there will be laid out and described, the rest being mostly down to getting out there and doing it.

The book covers a wide variety of topics, including upward as well as horizontal and downward management (as the author correctly concludes from his own experience, upward management on its own falls woefully short), subjects such as mentoring, publicity, writing, network maintenance activities, and many more.

The examples given are almost exclusively from the author's own experience, with some limited research findings thrown in on occasion. This is not to say that the findings are any less valid for that, even though the author admits himself that his is not the only possible way.

If you are an experienced manager and / or networker, there may be little in here that is fundamentally new. At the same time, the content is reasonably well packaged, easy to read and sufficiently comprehensive and the book is likely to be a very helpful guide to readers about to enter the job market or being in their early professional career.

Some may be a bit put off by the author's style (somewhat too often praising himself) and the fact that parts come across as a thinly veiled advertorial for his consulting services. A more general area for improvement in my opinion is the light 'ageing' of the advice - not that it is in any way obsolescent but a chapter or so on how some of the lessons can be usefully applied in today's 'compliance' obsessed business world, where many large companies get a shock of occurrences as common as business lunches or conference invitations, would certainly be a welcome addition (and bring the book that much closer to five star status in my opinion).

In the end, experienced networkers will likely find much confirmation of what they do and aspiring ones potentially be helped in avoiding unnecessary mistakes and being more successful at it sooner after reading this book - so you can hardly go wrong with giving it a try.

Common sense advice, yet so useful

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 23, 2013

Verified Purchase

This book is all about the importance of making and nurturing connections through your professional life. Most people underestimate how important personal relationships in a professional context, while some others might even label it as "endogamy". Yet, the reality is that man is a social animal and like it or not relationships will always be key to career advancement. The author explains how his social skills helped him develop a very successful professional career and provides some tips about how he reaches out to his network whenever he needs to. It is not about selfish profiteering but in looking for opportunities where everyone benefits. A lot of common sense in this book, but still, very inspirational.

Over half of the book is dedicated to how brilliant the author is and how wonderful his million anecdotes. A few actionable ideas but few and far between.

Good Practical on Networking

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 7, 2012

Verified Purchase

Excellent book on networking, full of practical advice, starting with title. He is right. Why waste meal times alone. There is always advantage in using this time wisely. I also like the tone of much of the book eg "the Key is success is generosity".

I am not sure it makes sense to dedicate one's whole whole life to working a network. However, I can see that if someone followed Keith Ferrazzi's full approach it would pay off.

Would not bother with Section 4. Contains good points, but too slow.
