Taking the Work Out of Networking: Your Guide to Making and Keeping Great Connections

â€œFor introverts who panic at the idea of networking, Wickreâ€™s book is a deep, calming breath.â€ â€”Sophia Dembling, author of The Introvertâ€™s Way

Former Google executive, editorial director of Twitter, self-described introvert, and â€œthe best-connected Silicon Valley figure youâ€™ve never heard ofâ€ (Walt Mossberg, Wall Street Journal), offers networking advice for anyone who has ever canceled a coffee date due to social anxiety. Learn to nurture a vibrant circle of reliable contacts without leaving your comfort zone.

Networking has garnered a reputation as a sort of necessary evil. Some people relish the opportunity to boldly work the room, introduce themselves to strangers, and find common career groundâ€”but for many others, the experience is awkward, or even terrifying.

The common networking advice for introverts are variations on the theme of overcoming or â€œfixingâ€ their quiet tendencies. But Karen Wickre is a self-described introvert who has worked in Silicon Valley for thirty years. She shows you how to embrace your quiet nature and â€œmake genuine connections that last, that we can nurture across the world for all kinds of purposesâ€ (Chris Anderson, head of TED).

Karenâ€™s â€œembrace your quiet sideâ€ approach is for anyone who finds themselves shying away from traditional networking activities, or for those who would rather be curled up with a good book on a Friday night than out at a party. With compelling arguments and creative strategies, this â€œpractical, easy-to-useâ€ (Sree Sreenivasan, former chief digital officer of Columbia University) book is a perfect guide.
