I used to hate networking.
Now I teach others how to enjoy it, by not being transactional.
Learn more about the
NetworKIT story.
I sat down with my friend, Cameia Williams of Go Off & Create to talk about my favorite topic.
What Can I Expect?
Here’s what you can expect to gain from attending NetworKIT events:
Reframe the Concept of Networking: Begin to see networking as a continuous cycle of connection and mutual support, rather than a linear process focused on immediate gains.
Shift from Reactive to Proactive Networking: Learn to actively cultivate connection with an open mind, versus pursuing exclusively, those you may identify as key influencers/decision makers.
Develop More Authentic Connections: Build genuine relationships by emphasizing curiosity, vulnerability, and empathy, rather than focusing on transactional interactions.
Improve Follow-Up Strategies: Acquire skills to follow up effectively, maintain momentum in relationships (especially when they lay dormant), and center the needs of others in communication.
Enhance Empathy and Strategic Thinking: Learn how to use empathy strategically, understand others' perspectives, uncover hidden opportunities, and build trust, while differentiating between strategy and manipulation.
