    Network Like You: Introverts Deep Dive, Extroverts Energize - Your Career Superpower Unleashed
    Jan 25 2026
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome back to The Woman's Career Podcast, where we empower you to own your professional path with confidence and strategy. I'm your host, and today we're diving straight into networking effectively—because building powerful connections isn't about who you know, it's about how you show up as your authentic self, whether you're an introvert thriving in deep conversations or an extrovert energizing the room.

    Picture this: You're at a bustling industry mixer, heart racing, wondering if you'll leave with real allies or just a pile of forgotten business cards. We've all been there. But here's the truth—networking is your superpower for career leaps, from promotions to partnerships. Harvard Business Review research shows women often face steeper hurdles in forging high-status networks, yet with smart strategies, we shatter those barriers. Leading Lady Coaching nails it: quality trumps quantity every time. So, let's break it down for introverts and extroverts alike, drawing from proven tactics that honor your energy.

    If you're an introvert like so many powerhouse women I know, lean into your strengths. Skip the chaotic crowds and aim for three meaningful chats per event, as Leading Lady advises. Set that intention beforehand: "Today, I connect deeply with two potential collaborators." You'll leave energized, not exhausted. Harness your writing superpowers—craft thoughtful LinkedIn messages or emails sharing resources. I once turned a single comment on a post into a referral goldmine. Host your own intimate gatherings, like quarterly lunches for six women entrepreneurs in complementary fields, such as web designers and branding photographers. Customer Contact Women echoes this: revisit your existing network first—reach out to that old colleague via a quick virtual coffee. And for follow-up? Systematize it with templates: share an article, congratulate a milestone, or make an intro. Mind Tools suggests diversifying upward—engage a senior leader you admire by commenting on their webinar or LinkedIn post.

    Extroverts, your natural charisma is a gift, but channel it strategically. Ellevate Network urges preparation: nail your elevator pitch, like Weiping Wang's pitch deck that spotlights strengths and invites mutual empowerment. Make networking daily—join women's groups like the Leading Lady Facebook Group for authentic support. Build your power network with "who's who" in your industry through associations. Embrace the 360-degree approach: initiate boldly in social settings, but nurture with consistent check-ins. Stanford Women's Leadership notes collaboration amplifies this—articulate your goals clearly to turn chats into sponsorships.

    No matter your style, join women-focused spaces for that sisterhood boost, where we lift each other without perfection pressure. Audit what drains versus energizes you, then plan quarterly: mix online forums, partnerships, and events. Your network becomes resilience, fresh ideas, and visibility—fuel for thriving.

  • Network Like You: Introvert and Extrovert Strategies for Career Launch

    Network Like You: Introvert and Extrovert Strategies for Career Launch
    Jan 24 2026
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome back to The Woman's Career Podcast, where we empower you to claim your power and soar in your career. I'm your host, and today we're diving straight into networking effectively—the rocket fuel that propels women like you to promotions, mentorships, and board seats. Whether you're an introvert cherishing deep one-on-one chats or an extrovert who energizes crowds, your style is your superpower. Picture yourself at a conference or on LinkedIn, sparking that connection that changes everything. Mind Tools reports that strategic networking gives women access to 90 percent of board positions and boosts organizational profitability by 70 percent. Harvard Business Review echoes this, showing women with strong female inner circles land executive roles more often, fostering resilience and bold decisions.

    Extroverts, harness your natural spark. As Deborah Gray, marketing professor at Central Michigan University, teaches, networking builds meaningful bridges, not just card stacks. Expand upward by commenting thoughtfully on a CEO's LinkedIn post or attending Sheryl Sandberg's webinar. Diversify with virtual coffees outside your field—fresh ideas ignite innovation. Leverage your circle utilitantly, like men do: ask for project advice or referrals while giving back through boards or community groups. The Center for Creative Leadership urges diversity across industries and ages for high-quality networks. Lead workshops or join cross-functional teams; proximity, says Gray, breeds your best allies.

    Introverts, quality trumps quantity—your depth is magnetic. Leading Lady Coaching transformed their founder's business with six strategies: target three meaningful event conversations, not card hordes. Shine online via LinkedIn messages sharing resources—many powerhouse ties start digitally. Host intimate quarterly lunches for six to eight women in complementary fields, like web designers and branding photographers. Deepen three to five strategic partnerships with regular check-ins. Contribute insights in industry Facebook groups or LinkedIn communities at your pace. Systematize follow-ups with email templates for milestones, staying top-of-mind without exhaustion. HiHello notes women excel at these genuine bonds.

    No matter your vibe, plan quarterly: mix online builds, small meetups, and masterminds. Audit what energizes you—skip draining mixers for cozy virtual chats. Block 30 weekly minutes, as Mind Tools advises, and share LinkedIn wins for visibility. Jacqueline V. Twillie of the Winning Season podcast shares her AHA method from Dear Resilient Leader: Attitude of mutual growth, Habits of small consistent actions like resource shares, and Actions creating spaces where we rise together. Career Central at the University of Pittsburgh stresses authentic elevator pitches to attract mentors. Pay it forward—connect peers, offer advice. When we lift each other, we thrive.

  • Network Like YOU: Finding Your Personal Connection Style in the Workplace

    Network Like YOU: Finding Your Personal Connection Style in the Workplace
    Jan 23 2026
    This is your The Woman's Career Podcast podcast.

    Welcome back to The Woman's Career Podcast. I'm your host, and today we're diving into one of the most transformative skills you can develop for your career: networking. Whether you're the type who thrives in a room full of people or prefers meaningful one-on-one conversations, there's a networking strategy that's perfect for you.

    Let's start with what research tells us about why networking matters. Building a strong professional network accelerates career progression by giving you access to promotions, mentorship, and sponsorship opportunities. It opens doors to fresh ideas through diverse perspectives and provides crucial peer support, especially in male-dominated industries where leadership can feel isolating. The key is that networking isn't about self-promotion or collecting business cards. It's about building genuine relationships that support everyone's goals.

    For our introverted listeners, here's the beautiful truth: your natural strengths are networking superpowers. Instead of trying to meet fifty people at an event, focus on having three quality conversations. This approach honors your preference for deeper interactions and creates much stronger professional relationships. One meaningful connection beats a stack of forgotten business cards every single time.

    Leverage your writing abilities. If you express yourself beautifully in writing, use that gift. Send thoughtful LinkedIn messages, write authentic emails, and engage meaningfully in online communities. Some of the strongest business relationships start with a helpful comment on someone's social media post or a genuine question about their work.

    Consider hosting your own intimate gatherings. When you control the environment and guest list, networking becomes comfortable and effective. You could organize quarterly lunch meetings for six to eight women entrepreneurs or mastermind-style gatherings. Suddenly, you're networking on your own terms.

    Now, for our extroverted listeners who love large events and energizing conversations, your enthusiasm is your strength. You naturally excel at expanding your network upward by building relationships with senior leaders. Attend webinars, engage at conferences, and seek introductions to mentors and sponsors who can accelerate your career growth.

    But here's something crucial for everyone, regardless of your personality type: strategic partnerships are gold. Identify three to five businesses that serve your ideal clients but don't compete with you. These become your referral network. One solid strategic partnership generates more qualified referrals than dozens of surface-level event connections.

    All personalities thrive with consistent follow-up. This is where most people drop the ball. Create simple systems and templates for staying in touch with your network. Monthly check-in emails, sharing relevant articles, making introductions between contacts. These touchpoints keep you top-of-mind without exhausting your energy.

    Join authentic networking groups for women. In male-dominated environments, women's networking groups provide space to breathe, use your voice, and connect on deeper levels with like-minded professionals who truly understand your journey.

    The strategy that works best is the one you'll actually do. Start by auditing which networking activities energize you and which drain you. Double down on what works and release what doesn't.
