Quick Tip: Be Interested in Others

Being interested in others by asking questions and actively listening to them is a great way to build your network and to be more memorable. Networking is not all about selling and sellf-promotion. Instead it is key to build rapport with someone and to be memorable and engaging.

The best way to come across as an interesting person is to be interested in others.

This means engaging in conversations with other people, asking them questions, encouraging them to share their expertise and actively listening to what they have to say. You can also share your own expertise and contribute to the conversation, but be sure to make it all about them!
