Episode Synopsis

I’m going to warn you up front, today’s episode is one of those “podcaster, heal thyself” situations. Because despite how confident and with-it I may sound on these episodes, I’m an introvert who stinks at networking. However, to fulfill the potential of both the university I serve and this side project, it’s time to suck it up and start more intentionally making connections. Today I’m going to share 3 steps I’m taking to become a better networker, partly for accountability, but mostly because I think my struggles might resonate with a lot of my listeners. So with that, let’s all get comfortably uncomfortable!~~~Master Challenging Conversations (and get a chance to win a copy of Reframing Academic Leadership!)LinkedIn's Social Saturday Squad (and you cann connect with me on LinkedIn right here!)~~~To listen to more episodes, head to kindleadershipchallenge.com!
