We've all been there, you walk into the room and instantly feel like it's your first day of class again. You know no one but you have the nervous energy of wanting to get to know someone. You've had the courage to show up to the event, now how on earth do make it worth the time and get talking to someone? Well, brush up on open threes and closed twos and how you can instantly identify a connection point in networking events and then go for it.
This talk is from July 2015 at the TEDxAmRingSalon. Christopher Barrat is an established and respected speaker, consultant and author in management development skills. His knowledge is based on genuine real world experience. In his talk he deconstructs the awkward networking event to a very clean, simple process.
Remember, the reason you feel like you can't network at the moment means nothing. It's a skill and so you can simply practice it until you're a natural.
