As I was doing so, people kept coming up to me after my talk and asking me if I had read the book, and seen the movie, "Pay it Forward", which I hadn't up until that time. After reading the book and then seeing the movie, I realized what they were talking about and it really helped me fully develop one of the most important strategies of NetWeaving which involves "hosting" meetings for two other people - just because you believe they will benefit from meeting each other.

At the end of these "energized" sessions in which people discover ways they can help each other; things they have found that they have in common, and connections each can make for the other, we now challenge each person to "Pay It Forward" and to "host" a meeting for two other people. You have been gracious enough to allow me to call this, a "business version" of "Pay it Forward" and already it is catching on around the country.

We hope to bring even more attention to the Pay it Forward Foundation, especially through our connection with and promotion of Junior Achievement.
