An introvert's guide to networking | Rick Turoczy | TEDxPortland

I really love this - - thanks so much!

Artificial is bad. If someone doesn’t want to be around you, I follow Jesus principle and move on.

Under society's heavy weight an extrovert can easily be turned / crushed in to a meaningless introvert 😢

Greetings from an introvert mutated to an ambivert

30 years, never had a coffee invite, thanks society, another reminder that it hates me.

Did they put laughing gas in the crowd or something? This wasn’t that damn funny

Great talk regarding networking! Networking is a huge way to succeed and everyone needs to be able to do it. Great message and advice!

I really want to be better at networking and building a community. I get so stuck in myself. I wish it was easier. Ugh.

Hey there! Just stumbled upon "An Introvert's Guide to Networking" and it's an eye-opener! Rick really knows his stuff. As introverts, networking can feel daunting, but his advice on "collecting dots" and connecting them in our own terms is genius. Let's build our community and make common sense, well, common! Time to conquer those networking events with confidence!

Is networking more like superficial? It's not like everyone open up with everyone they meet right?

Useless. Let me save you the trouble of watching this video: the only actionable advice provided is “say yes to the next coffee you’re invited to.” That’s it.

This is precisely what I needed. Thanks for sharing Rick!

After watching this valuable video, I have decided to go and have an amazing golden cup of coffee with an amazing new person with common sense that is not common :D. Thank you, Rick!

Weak. Idk man this ain’t for me

weirdo

That's brilliant!

Watching this just before meeting

❤️❤️❤️

Not a bad talk but I'll save you 12 minutes. Set up a coffee chat with one new person. If that's too much, say yes to the next coffee chat request.

As someone who's just really getting his career started - I always thought that networking was for jerks with an underlying agenda. Never thought about it as connecting the dots and reflecting on who needs to know who.

Wonderful explanation

Idk, this man's humour sounds like a confirmation of all socially awkward people, not just introverts.

I dont know why i m being introvert some times bexome extrovert person . it happens sometimes and i enjoye and remember those moments but unfortunately againe become introvert

Buenos porque acostumbrados a incertidumbre y nervios, comprender sentido post jintada,

💡

🦔☕🐌

Been introvert my entire life and this is changing as I become a PT, grow my network and business

so who pays for the coffee

Love it

Came here cause my social level got drained like 30 min into a start up meeting and planned to network but I’ve been a hermit crab as a full time student and wah I forgot how hard it was to meet new people

Good idea with coffee meetings. However I don't drink coffee.....

Introverts rule the world!!!

Looking for a art collectors😁👋🏿

Are there any sides for introverts?

Common sense for, special for others.
Take a cup of coffee, collect a dots

I didn’t learn anything from this 😂

Thought this was a pretty weak talk, too much milking the same introvert jokes and really not any value to bring to us as an audience.

Only said 2 important thing this whole video
First: 1 on 1 conversation are easier

2: Go invite someone for lunch to build a connection

I want to wake up one morning and find out that my portfolio is $1000,000, I know is possible

Sure I would say yes to the next coffee invite, but we introverts don't get a lot of em.

I chose CS because I thought I will be coding from home all day long and dont have meet anyone in real life but now that I have reached the point where I have enough skills and I have been trying to get a job but I am getting rejected because of my zero social skills and zero network. I mean I cant even talk to my programmer neighbour I just cant. So that's why I am here.😅

I find it difficult to find a job because I don't have any connections. All I do is just apply on job ads. I am losing hope

This is brilliant

Hello from another introvert! Are there any options for collecting half dots?
