How to Create, Maintain, and Leverage the Relationships That Will Transform Your Career

Michael Urtuzuástegui Melcher

Meaningful relationships are a must-have to sustain and further your career, yet networking and relationship building are rarely taught arts. Your Invisible Network is your guide to building, maintaining, and effectively leveraging professional relationships with both nuance and integrity—and in only twenty minutes a day.

Every chapter of Your Invisible Network contains a series of quick lessons and manageable practice exercises that even the busiest of professionals can fit into their schedules.  You’ll learn:

  • The seven types of relationships critical for your career success
  • How to foster meaningful connections with people you have little in common with
  • How to find mentors and sponsors
  • How to reach out to people despite discomfort—and what to do if they don’t respond
  • How to be a resource to others
  • How to have a happier and more fulfilled work life

What readers are saying in Amazon reviews

"All my career I have been working in the corporate world (being a Latino) and I have been looking for a book that would be able to really distill the complexity of networking and how important it's. Just finished this book, what a great surprise! I found what I was looking for... the framework, exercises and insights really change the way I was approaching networking. Highly recommended! I read first the Kindle version, bought the audible version and now the hardcover version to keep in my office."

"Michael Melcher is a terrific storyteller. He's like your super smart and wise friend sharing "I'm familiar with the yearning to get it right and the fear that you might be missing out on something that could be a game changer. I know what it's like to be ambitious but frustrated.

In Your Invisible Network, Melcher illustrates how to get it right in building relationships and gives you clear and practical instructions in how to do so in 20 minutes a day. In following his tips, I already find myself more effectively engaging and interacting with people. You will too."

"Michael makes networking accessible in a way that no one else ever has for me. As a solopreneur who finds selling uncomfortable and tedious, the exercises and advice helped me to find the confidence to work on business development from a fresh perspective. I no longer dread reaching out to my “weak ties;” rather, I look forward to the interactions and the insights I inevitably gain from them."

"The timing of this book was perfect. As we continue to emerge from the pandemic, Michael reminds us how important and fruitful it can be to continue to expand on what we have already established, our network. His examples are practical and easy to implement, plus the humor weaved in is spot on! I saw him speak recently and I put some of his recommendations into play “real time” with instant results. This book is a great kick in pants to remember to pay attention to that investment you have made over your life/career and that the returns come in many forms, visible and “invisible” if you continue to nurture and build on it."
