Episode Details

@DavidBurkus joined us last month in People School for a powerful Office Hours session on networking. One of my favorite takeaways? You don’t have to cold meet strangers to grow your network.

Instead, reconnect with your dormant ties - people you already know but haven’t spoken to in a while. It’s one of the easiest, most effective ways to open new doors.

This is a clip from our live office hours in People School which we host every month! Watch the full class inside People School and join our next class. Learn more about People School: www.scienceofpeople.com/enroll
