    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    Networking is about building relationships, not justcollecting contacts.

    It is not only for extroverts; introverts can network inways that fit their energy.

    Listening to understand is more powerful than listening torespond.

    Follow-up matters just as much as the first conversation.

    Small, genuine interactions can lead to long-term careeropportunities.

    You do not need to talk to everyone in the room; onemeaningful connection is enough.
