      #1

      You’re at a networking event, dreading the prospect of having to talk to strangers. You approach a person you think might be able to help you, but instead of being able to help you, they just give you their card.

      #2

      For introverts, networking is extremely uncomfortable and awkward. It makes us feel sleazy and inauthentic, and we hate small talk. It’s not what we got into our field to do.

      #3

      Introverts can outperform their extroverted counterparts by realizing two truths: that they can network effectively, and that they can be authentic while doing so.

      #4

      The old way of networking is becoming obsolete. People can learn all about you from a phone they carry in their pocket. The new way of networking is through strategic, prepared, and practiced interactions with just a few people.

      #5

      There are three types of networking: transactional, aimless, and strategic. Introverts should focus on strategic networking, which will help them build a strong network that can help them reach their goals faster.
