Overview
Many professionals avoid networking because they find it uncomfortable, ingenuine and a waste of time. Yet, many of us are aware that we could potentially get more out of networking – after all, it’s a common tool in business and career growth.
Julissa Shrewsbury has used networking to build two successful businesses and navigate three career changes; she has also helped hundreds of clients to build a focused networking strategy to achieve their own goals. Julissa’s approach to networking is the polar opposite of the traditional ‘salesy’ approach – it’s not about working the room, it’s not about attending everything and it’s not about having coffees with everyone you meet. It’s about being strategic and selective, and ‘on-brand’ with who you are as a professional.
