If you're a corporate professional or a government employee looking to grow your influence through your network then this is the episode to tune into. My guest today is a longtime friend and colleague Melissa Histon. Mel is the founder and CEO of Hunter based charity Got Your Back Sista. Mel has grown the charity over the past 8 and a half years through determination, volunteers and her amazing professional network. I have a saying that I use regularly (borrowed it from Alex Hormozi) and it is "give, give, give until they ask" and Mel is someone who epitomises this. She doesn't just network for networking or status sake - she has a real and genuine interest in people and it sets her apart from other business development professionals, CEOs and fundraisers.
