Contrary to what we are taught from a young age, grades and ability are not our only golden ticket to success. Rather, building relationships is a key ingredient to reaching our personal and professional goals. Opportunities arise when we foster connection with others by being open to them and their experiences as well as being receptive to learning new skills and going outside our comfort zone. However, doing so can be daunting, especially for introverts who may struggle to put themselves out there. In this program, you’ll discover best practices for networking digitally and IRL that play to your strengths and make a lasting impression.

Attendees will learn how to:

• Master the art of conversation as an introvert
• Build new relationships and strengthen existing ones
• Find and capitalize on opportunities to build connection
• Apply networking lessons to identify the right career fit
