Love this idea! Even introverts can network (secretly)

Great tips! Any advice on maintaining the new connections you build?

Hey Ami, great networking tips for we introverts! One tip I have learned for parties/events is if I am talking to someone and it’s at a point I want to break away, find someone I know walking by and introduce them to the person/people I am talking to, and leave them to it :)

I'd consider myself an extrovert, but even I sometimes find networking hard.

I used to think it was transactional, but it's more than that.

Glad to see that you think of networking more on the lines of building and maintaining relationships!

Could you share advice on how someone could use this to land your first role?

Nice, how do you initiate a conversation if you are looking out for opportunities and want to reach out to start building relationships ?

Thanks Ami, this is actionable and I think next time I am going to employ your tips whenever I am at any event where otherwise I would have stood in a corner alone.

I totally get that. I'd say I'm more an ambivert than a true introvert, but I definitely set talking to new people goals all the time.
