Expanding Your Network

When I ask my clients about areas they want to improve in their career development, I often hear “I’m not good at networking”. They recognize that having strong relationships in their professional network is as beneficial to their career as having strong friendships and family relationships is healthy for their life.

Networking takes some effort, but the strategies can be simple. Planning is easy but action is hard, especially if you lean introverted. There are many practical activities to build your professional relationships and many can be very informal.
