Leveraging Authentic Professional Relationships with Networking Expert, Andy Lopata
In this episode, Roxanne Derhodge chats with networking expert Andy Lopata. They delve into his career journey, the role of authenticity in business networking, and his unique follow-up process. They also discuss the importance of nurturing your network, strategic communication, and Lopata's upcoming book. The conversation concludes with thoughts on authentic leadership and maintaining balance in life.
Networking for business is an important approach to create mutually beneficial relationships that can help move you forward in your career...or is it? On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we are so fortunate to welcome (all the way from London England) Networking Expert, Andy Lopata.
Labelled ‘Mr. Network’ by The Sun, Andy Lopata was called ‘one of Europe’s leading business networking strategists’ by the Financial Times and ‘a true master of networking’ by the Independent.
A very experienced international speaker, Andy is the author of three books on networking, has been quoted in a number of other business books and is regularly quoted in the international press. His fourth book will be published by Bloomsbury Publishing in 2019.
