4 Ways Introverts Can Network Successfully
Though developing solid business skills is a key component of growing your career, networking is equally important, if not more so. When you connect with the right people, you open the door to new opportunities and get to learn from their experiences. The problem, however, is that some folks struggle to network more so than others. Introverts, in fact, often dread the idea of networking, so much so that they avoid it completely.
Now let's be clear: Being an introvert in no way implies that you're devoid of social skills. There are plenty of introverts who make great leaders and have active social lives to boot. At the same time, introverts tend to crave alone time, and often feel overwhelmed when faced with the notion of having to be "on" for extended periods of time. This can make networking difficult to varying degrees.
