Welcome to The Woman's Career Podcast, the show where we share stories, strategies, and inspiration to help you thrive on your professional journey. Today, we’re talking about something that’s often hyped as a “must-do,” but can feel surprisingly daunting—networking. Whether you light up in a roomful of strangers or get sweaty palms just thinking about small talk, I’m here with practical tips for introverts and extroverts alike, because every woman deserves a strong, empowered network.
Let’s get right into it. Networking isn’t just a box to check off—it’s foundational to career growth, especially for women. Research shows that the highest-achieving women have one thing in common: a close inner circle of supportive women, alongside a broad and diverse network. It’s not just about who you know, but who’s in your corner and who you lift up along the way. Think of this as your power circle—those colleagues or friends, like Priya from your last job or Alicia from your alumnae group, who are willing to offer advice, share opportunities, or simply listen when you need it.
But what if networking feels like a chore? Preparation is your best friend—especially for us introverts. Before any event, do a little homework. Know who’s going to be in the room, have your elevator pitch ready—a simple, authentic story about who you are and what excites you professionally. Practice it out loud. This way, when you introduce yourself to someone like Dr. Olivia Chen, the keynote speaker, you’ll feel more grounded and clear.
Now, for my extrovert sisters—yes, you’ve got energy and enthusiasm, but focus it. Instead of trying to meet everyone, aim for quality over quantity. Build a rapport with a handful of people who genuinely interest you. Maybe you bond with someone over a shared interest in women’s leadership, or you discover you both admire Reshma Saujani’s work with Girls Who Code. Follow those threads. Genuine connections always outlast a pocketful of business cards.
Let’s talk about virtual networking, because in today’s world, platforms like LinkedIn, Ellevate Network, and even Slack communities are goldmines. Join relevant groups, participate in chats, and don’t hesitate to reach out with a personalized message: “Hi, Maya, I loved your article on women in fintech. I’d value your thoughts on breaking into the industry.”
For everyone—after the event or online interaction, follow up! A quick message saying, “I enjoyed our conversation about mentoring,” or, “Would you like to grab coffee and continue this discussion?” keeps the connection alive. Periodically check in—even if it’s just to share an interesting article or say congrats on a new role.
Most of all, remember networking as a woman isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about building a circle where you and others grow, share, and succeed. Harness your strengths, prepare with intention, and approach each interaction as the start of something empowering—for you and for other women. Thanks for joining me on The Woman’s Career Podcast. Now go out and build your circle—your way.
