Building connections is important in every business and in every department of a company. Knowing how to form and grow these connections is a crucial part of helping your business succeed. That’s where networking comes in.

Simply walking up to someone random to say hello during a conference is probably not going to result in a valuable connection. Instead, you should know a few things about the person before approaching them, and also have a plan for starting a conversation. Even if meeting strangers may not be your favorite thing to do, this course will help make the process feel easier and more natural.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

• Understand why “who you know, not what you know” is true in networking
• Build strong connections
• Find networking opportunities that will benefit your business
