Don't Just Network, Build Your Own Collaborative Team

Networking is, at best,widely misunderstood.

If you really want to advance your career, don’t just shove business cards in front of people.

As prolific actor/productive mad man James Franco suggests, build a team of people you could routinely collaborate with.

James Franco is hardly the first actor to use this strategy.

These groups form because people who work well together tend to want to continue working together.

And really just go ahead and go do it.
