Minimalist’s Guide to Networking

J. Kelly Hoey

Networking today can be as demanding and time-intensive as in the pre-LinkedIn era. But there is a smarter approach to this essential career-building activity (other than scheduling endless one-on-one coffee dates or magically hoping to transform awkward small-talk into meaningful business connections). In this interactive keynote, J. Kelly Hoey reframes networking and, in the process, helps declutter overcommitted networking calendars. She reveals how everyday activities (called “micro-networking”) come together to create powerful network building opportunities. Hoey also shares how to powerfully reduce networking anxiety by focusing on things like the quality of overlooked social interactions, when to step back from long-standing commitments, and how to revive dormant connections. She then leaves attendees with a 30-day action plan to put her concrete suggestions into immediate practice.
