  • Network Like a Woman: Ditch the Small Talk, Build Authentic Connections

    Network Like a Woman: Ditch the Small Talk, Build Authentic Connections
    2025/07/09
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome back to The Woman’s Career Podcast. Today, we’re diving straight into one of the most misunderstood yet crucial career skills: networking. Whether you’re the woman who thrives at every social gathering, or the one who clings to her coffee at the edge of the room, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to network effectively—and how women, in particular, can use networking as a real force for empowerment.

    First things first: forget the outdated image of networking as simply collecting business cards or making small talk at stuffy mixers. Networking is about building real, genuine relationships and creating value on both sides. Think about what resources you need in your career—maybe that’s a mentor like Carla Harris at Morgan Stanley, or a sponsor who can advocate for you when it’s time for a promotion. Identify these needs and look for connections who can help you move forward, but also think about how you can add value to their journey.

    Let’s get practical. If you’re an introvert, preparation is your superpower. Before an event, own your message—have your elevator pitch ready. Make a list of topics you feel comfortable discussing. Research attendees so you know who you’d like to meet, and don’t be afraid to start small, maybe by joining women’s groups or professional associations like Ellevate Network or Lean In Circles. These spaces often foster more supportive and inclusive conversations, which can make networking feel less intimidating.

    For extroverts, your energy is an asset—use it to connect authentically, not superficially. Focus on building a close inner circle of women who can offer advice, support, and connections. DDI’s research even shows that high-achieving women benefit most from a strong, close-knit group of other women. So don’t just network wide, network deep.

    No matter your personality, remember this: the magic happens in the follow-up. Send a note after you meet someone—thank them, mention something you discussed, and keep the conversation alive. Use tools like LinkedIn to organize contacts, but also make time for one-on-one coffee chats or volunteering for projects outside your usual circle. According to Central Michigan University’s Deborah Gray, shared activities, whether it’s a professional board or a hiking group, can be especially powerful for building authentic connections.

    And let’s talk about the unique value of women networking with women. A Harvard Business Review study found that women build high-status connections most effectively through third-party ties—meaning, don’t shy away from asking for introductions. Collaboration over competition is key. Instead of fighting for a bigger piece of the pie, think about how you can make the pie bigger for all women.

    Finally, don’t let your network grow stale. Refresh it by staying in touch, attending new events, and connecting others together. Operate as a connector, not just a seeker, and you’ll find your network becomes not only wider, but stronger.

  • Networking Your Way: Authentic Connections, Empowered Careers

    Networking Your Way: Authentic Connections, Empowered Careers
    2025/07/07
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome to The Woman’s Career Podcast. Today, we’re diving right into a crucial skill that can transform your career: networking effectively, whether you’re an introvert, extrovert, or anywhere in between.

    Let’s get to the heart of it. Networking isn’t just about collecting business cards at events or expanding your LinkedIn connections. It’s about building authentic, lasting relationships that support your growth and help you open doors for others. Deborah Gray, professor of marketing at Central Michigan University, describes networking as connecting through shared activities, not just proximity or similarity. For women, research consistently shows we often prioritize mentoring, collaboration, and values-driven relationships in our networks. It's not just about getting ahead—it's about lifting as we climb, making space for everyone at the table, and redefining success on our own terms.

    Now, if you’re an introvert, networking might send a shiver down your spine. Maybe you’d rather endure a dental appointment than a crowded networking mixer. Here’s the good news: preparation is your superpower. Ellevate Network advises to own your message—craft a concise elevator pitch and jot down some topics in advance. Try smaller settings like one-on-one coffees or volunteering for a cross-functional project. And you don’t always have to network in-person; strategic emails or thoughtful messages on platforms like LinkedIn count, too. Remember, introverts thrive in deep, meaningful conversations. Use that to your advantage: focus on quality, not quantity.

    If you’re an extrovert, use your natural energy to connect widely, but be intentional. According to the Center for Creative Leadership, building a valuable network isn’t about collecting names—it’s about building mutually beneficial relationships. Look for ways to offer help before asking for it. Extroverts can also fall into the trap of spreading themselves too thin, so be sure to follow up and maintain those connections. Keep your network fresh by reaching out periodically, not just when you need something.

    Whatever your style, successful networking for women often means adopting a 360-degree approach. That means leveraging women’s groups, attending industry events, and also embedding networking into everyday life—like chatting before a meeting or connecting over a shared activity. Think about the six types of networks that women leaders need: idea networks for sparking innovation, influence networks to help move projects forward, and sponsor networks for those critical career boosts. Sponsors, often senior leaders, are especially important—they're the ones who advocate for you behind closed doors. Don’t be shy about seeking them out or even becoming one yourself.

    Remember, networking isn’t a one-way street. Embrace the mindset of connection over transaction. Ask yourself, “How can I support others?” as often as, “How can this relationship support me?” Women of color and those from marginalized groups can especially benefit by focusing on building equity and making the pie bigger for everyone, as suggested on Embrace Change NYC.

    To all the listeners: whether you light up a room or prefer a quiet coffee chat, networking is a skill you can shape to fit your strengths and your values. Start where you are, build with intention, and remember—each connection is a chance to empower yourself and someone else.

  • Networking Norms Remixed: Women Wiring Wins

    Networking Norms Remixed: Women Wiring Wins
    2025/07/06
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome to The Woman’s Career Podcast, where we dive into the real stories, strategies, and secrets behind women building powerful careers. Today, we’re tackling a vital topic for any professional woman: networking effectively—whether you’re an introvert, extrovert, or somewhere in between.

    Effective networking isn’t just swapping business cards or growing your LinkedIn connections. Deborah Gray, professor of marketing at Central Michigan University, reminds us that it’s about building authentic relationships and creating value. For women, this means developing not just diverse and influential connections across genders, but also nurturing a tight-knit circle of women who support, inspire, and challenge us. Research by DDI emphasizes how high-achieving women consistently benefit from an inner circle of other women—those who offer encouragement, honest advice, and open doors within larger networks.

    Let’s talk practical tips for both introverts and extroverts. For introverts, preparation is everything. The Ellevate Network suggests crafting your elevator pitch ahead of time, coming up with a list of discussion topics, and even reviewing event logistics and attendee lists before you step into the room. It can help turn anxiety into confidence, knowing you have clear goals and talking points ready. Introverts also often excel at forging deep one-on-one connections, so opt for smaller gatherings where you can actually have meaningful conversations, rather than get lost in a sea of name tags.

    If you’re more extroverted, your energy shines in larger settings and group interactions. Use that to your advantage by proactively engaging people and being the connector—introducing others who might benefit from knowing each other. But don’t forget the essential follow-up. After any event, send a message or schedule a coffee chat to solidify those first encounters into real relationships.

    No matter your personality, influencing your network isn’t about quantity but about authenticity and reciprocity. The Center for Creative Leadership recommends embedding networking into your daily work: volunteer for cross-functional projects, ask colleagues for introductions, or simply strike up conversations before or after meetings. Socializing outside your usual circle, such as having lunch with someone from a different department or joining a women’s group, can spark surprising opportunities. Keep in mind that building a strong network takes ongoing effort—periodically reconnect with contacts, offer value before asking for favors, and always be genuine.

    Remember, networking for women isn’t just copying traditional male-dominated approaches. Leverage women’s circles, industry groups, and mentorship opportunities designed for women. According to DDI, women thrive when they intentionally build networks tailored to their goals—whether that’s finding mentors, sparking new ideas, or expanding influence within an organization.

    Listeners, the journey to career success is rarely a solo climb. Every powerful woman you admire has built her path with the help of others. Invest in your network, nurture your relationships, and don’t be afraid to step outside your comfort zone—because your next opportunity might be just one connection away.
