In a world where AI blurs reality, face-to-face connections are critical to standing out. This workshop includes everything you were expected to know about socializing, but no one ever told you. We will do a deep dive into where to find events, breaking into conversations, what to say once you get started, and how to follow up so it’s not just a rising number of connections on LinkedIn.
This workshop has been a conference favorite because you won’t just be listening to me talk. You will immediately put each new skill into practice with your fellow attendees. Most people walk out with their first new connection already made. Having a structure to follow is what turns a daunting room into an exciting one.
10 years ago, I was stuck on a dead-end team at a company that eventually shuttered. I studied networking to kick-start my career, and after 7 years at Netflix that started at a conference, I am going to help you skip a few steps and get right to what works.
Takeaways
- Setting networking goals and identifying the most useful events
- Becoming a confident conversationalist
- Making a genuine connection instead of a one-off conversation
