Building Relationships and Networking
Building relationships with classmates, coworkers, professors, and clients can lead to valuable connections and opportunities. Whether it's landing a job, starting a business, transitioning to a second act, or maneuvering within your organization the power of networking is undeniable.
Start by identifying people or companies that align with your interests and values.
Introduce yourself, ask questions, take time to exchange contact information, or follow on LinkedIn.
Once you make the connection, follow up with a personalized message and continue to nurture those connections.
Be authentic and genuine in your interactions – it's not about collecting business cards or LinkedIn followers, but rather building meaningful relationships that can benefit both parties. You got this!
