Everyone is different- I absolutely love helping people. I could spend all day helping teammates and feel super energized by the end of the day.

Having said that, this advice is actually a bit problematic for me. I am over eager to help my teammates as well as those on other teams. I make a lot of connections that way, but the connections are almost always peer or lower on the ladder. They aren’t the connections that help as spoken of in other areas of this article. Also, with the time I’ve spent helping others, it’s less time I’m delivering something of value. I enjoy helping others, so I do it, but I try to keep it in moderation and keep in mind my priorities.
