If you’re going to succeed as a lawyer, you need to network.
For extroverts, networking is a piece of cake. For introverts, networking is a piece of cake iced with hot sauce and cayenne pepper. It. Is. Painful. And it causes profuse sweating. (Er … that’s what we hear from a friend.)
How do you stop turning into a sweaty wreck, and make the connections that will help your practice grow? Fear not: There are a few workarounds.
Networking can be scary, but it’s worth the blood, sweat and tears if it generates new business for your practice. Whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert, it’s time to steel yourself and get out there for the sake of your career and walk the walk.
And if you need a drink first, that’s okay, too.
