Dr. Jean, The Results Queen® discusses the importance of networking etiquette. Dr. Jean shares an experience where she was not given an opportunity to speak with two interested contacts because another attendee interrupted to promote an unrelated service. She emphasizes that networking events are for making connections, not just promoting oneself. Attendees should mind their manners by listening attentively, allowing space for others to converse without interrupting, and considering why others are there before promoting one's own services. Dr. Jean encourages following up on referrals privately after events and being mindful not to miss opportunities by failing to follow networking best practices.
Key Takeaways:
- Be Attentive: Read social cues when networking to understand contexts and opportunities.
- Stay Focused: Allow space for others to converse without interrupting potential connections.
- Be Considerate: Consider why others are attending before promoting your own services.
- Don't Interrupt: Redirect conversations politely if referrals are needed rather than interrupting.
- Follow Up: Follow up after events privately if referrals are to be provided.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
