Networking often carries with it unflattering interpretations: appearing to be friendly when, in fact, looking to leap over others in the business, profit from your friendships, or, perhaps worse. “Fake it (friendships) ‘til you make it” is another often heard phrase.   Judge Tim Oakes, Marion Superior Court, sits down with IndyBar staff (Deneen Fitzgerald and Bryssa Helton) to talk about authentic networking. Real relationship building and the benefits of developing a community-oriented network.  Judge Oakes speaks about the lessons he learned from George Bailey in It's a Wonderful Life (1946). By listening, you'll hear how the "help others before you help yourself" theme personally shaped Judge Oakes's approach to being more curious, paying more attention to others, and how genuine investment has personally benefited his career.
