Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2010
In my view this book is definitely worth the read!

This is a great book about how to build your personal network as well as develop relationships with friends, coworkers and acquaintances in order to grow your list of 'clutch' friends (i.e. that select group of people who will come to your aid when you're in a bind).

The book centers around the idea, which I realize I forget sometimes, that you need to develop relationships with those `clutch' friends long before you ever need them, and this book explains how to do just that!

Harvey McKay does a great job once again as "Dig Your Well Before You're Thirsty: The Only Networking Book You'll Ever Need" is definitely worthwhile if you're looking for a new job, trying to move up in your organization, or in any type of sales. I would say that this is a must read for anyone in business whose livelihood revolves around leads or referrals. It's not just about who you know anymore, it's about who you know that will come to your aid when you need them.

Crucial professional networking and general for a clear understanding. The title gives away what he'll go over and I love this book. I have a stack of networking books and all have ended up in the garbage, skipped the garage sale. The bottom says the Only Networking Book You'll Ever Need, and that is true.

Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2013
Certainly a good read. In the same vein as "How to make friends & influence people" by Dale Carnegie. Unlike quite a few authors of this genre, he does not resort to pseudo-intellectualism and silly antics. The author is obviously a good salesman in real life and makes a very good pitch for what he believes in, in writing. The book is written in style of someone making a presentation to a room full of people. He knows how to tell a good story without rambling. His personal prejudices do sneak through very occasionally and at places the book dates itself. The short chapters are convenient as one can easily read for a few minutes at a time. An occasional example/anecdote does make one wince due to its near street language/manner.
All in all, time well spent and one comes away feeling that something useful has been learnt.

This is one book that I recommend to anyone who is quiet or doesn't think they are the type of person who can benefit from social networking. If you think you will make it to the top on merit alone, read this book. Its practical and to the point. Lots of great examples to learn from as well.

Couldn't put the book down. Filled with golden nuggets . You want to expand your network ? This is the book for you. Harvey Mackay is absolutely right when he said " The best way you can help yourself is to use your network to help others." Read his book today.

The themes in the good are very important and useful, it's all about Mackay's rise to top society, and how to form a network of people who can solve you many problems. His writing could be better, many chapters are not really related to each other.
