Just because you don’t have a big rolodex populated with powerful names doesn’t mean you can’t attain career success. In this episode, Michael and guest coach Hanna Hart talk about one of the most important ideas in careers, “the strength of weak ties,” which means that people you barely know or have fallen out of touch with can be some of the most positive sources of career progress. We learn how Hanna turned an awkward cocktail party encounter into a career-changing opportunity, why being uncomfortable while networking is a good thing, and why it’s always a good idea to write an amazon review for an acquaintance who has written a book.
