Why this topic matters

Networking can feel rushed, performative, and shallow—especially if you prefer deeper conversations or worry about how others perceive you. You may want to meet new people but leave events feeling drained, overlooked, or unsure how to follow up. You don’t need to become an extrovert to network effectively. Learn to build genuine rapport, connect authentically, and approach networking with greater confidence.
