Description
On today's episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius chats with Derek Coburn, the author of 'Networking Is NOT Working' and the co-founder and CEO of CADRE, an un-networking community in Washington, DC, which currently supports over 100 CEOs and business leaders.
Derek began his career in the financial services industry. When the economy took a turn for the worse, he had to devote more attention to his existing clients and had less time for "traditional networking". He began to experiment with his own ideas, which included creating an informal 'un-networking' group consisting of his best clients and other top professionals. Derek's passion for connecting remarkable professionals led him to start CADRE and write his first book.
You'll discover how Derek overcame childhood trauma and made his personality stronger.
You'll learn how both Derek and Darius started their books and how it changed their lives.
You'll also discover the importance of creating value in our lives and living for the present.

How Derek overcame childhood trauma, made his personality stronger, and built his 'rejection muscles’
