How Important Are Relationships After You Leave A Company?

There was an article in a recent HR publication this month that asked the question "how important are relationships after you leave a company". I am sure you know the answer to this question. They are very important especially the managers, directors, C-level individuals you had built strong relationships with over the years.


As many of you know; the working world especially when you stay in a particular field forging your career, the working population in that field seem to pop up as you move from company to company. So, make sure that when you leave a company that you stay in touch with those important people who you worked with. As I can attest, I have continued to meet regularly with my former CEO, CFO, COB to name a few to keep the relationship fresh, up to date, informed, just in case I do run into them in another company. 


Keep the relationship fresh, cordial, and build on the relationship rather than let it wain.
