Networking - How to Shift your Mindset and Build your Confidence.

When it comes to building a successful career, there’s no doubt that you’re going to have to get out there and network. But that doesn’t necessarily mean you’re going to love it!

Today, I share strategies and real-world advice to help make Networking “not a dirty word.”

You and I both know how much time it takes to cultivate a great network, right? Hours, if not days, of follow up, events, and putting yourself out there.  

But to be successful, your mindset is critical. Whether you’re looking to build a career or create a life you love -- it all comes back to your mindset.

Most of my clients feel incredibly uncomfortable networking. I have even had clients tell me it feels slimy and inauthentic. But it doesn’t have to be that way. 

I haven’t always liked networking. In fact, I can say that I avoided the book “Never Eat Alone” for over ten years because I hated the idea of giving up my quiet lunches. 

However, I’ve realized that networking is THE KEY to success. So, I share my strategies and tips for successful networking. 

I challenge you to take these strategies and make them your own. Use them over and over to shift your mindset and boost your confidence so that whether you are networking to find a new job or increase your industry influence, you can do so and have fun.

Go ahead and take these strategies to start creating real impact for yourself and your career!

You’ll learn…

1. What networking Is and Isn’t.
2. How giving and taking balances the equation in networking.
3. Who you should network with.
4. How to easily nurture your network.
5. And what networking events you should attend for the most impact. (hint it isn’t what you think!)
