PWN MEETING:
NETWORKING FOR INTROVERTS

As an introvert, it can feel like the best plan for handling a networking event is to avoid it. Still, inevitably the instance where attendance is in your best interest or simply unavoidable is bound to occur. The good news is that, despite being out of your comfort zone, the networking environment is a setting in which introverts, too, can thrive.

Introverts have natural qualities that, when utilized, can position them to network with neighbouring extroverts and have that contrast work to their advantage. In Networking for Introverts, we will be discussing topics including active listening, persuasive speech, and balancing your needs as an introvert.

Janice Chaka will teach you how you can succeed at a networking event, not despite your introverted qualities, but because of them.
