Welcome to The Woman's Career Podcast. Today, we’re diving headlong into a skill that’s fueled some of the most remarkable career trajectories—networking. That word might stir up excitement, anxiety, or both. But whether you’re the life of the party or happiest nestled in a quiet corner, building authentic connections is one of the most strategic moves you can make for your career—and we’re here to help you do it, your way.
Let’s start with a bold truth: women tend to network differently than men. According to Ellevate Network, our approach often fits into our lives, not the other way around. We leverage social settings, women’s groups, and every micro-opportunity. And that’s not just okay—it’s powerful. Research from DDI and the Center for Creative Leadership shows that the most successful women don’t just have broad networks; they cultivate a close inner circle of other women who offer support, advice, and critical connections. But don’t stop there—mix it up. Expanding your network with diverse perspectives is every bit as important as nurturing those inner-circle relationships.
Preparation is your superpower. Before any event or chance meeting, own your story. Have your elevator pitch ready—what you do, what drives you, and what you’re aiming for. If you’re an introvert, this preparation can be grounding. Make a list of conversation topics and research attendees ahead of time to lower that intimidation factor. For extroverts, remember: networking isn’t a numbers game. It’s about depth, not just breadth. Focus on listening as much as you share. Deborah Gray of Central Michigan University recommends using shared activities—like volunteering or joining a board—to create meaningful touchpoints where natural conversation springs up. No forced schmoozing required.
Let’s talk about the ask. Specificity is your secret sauce. Instead of, “Can you help me find a job?” ask for a quick intro to someone in your field or for a ten-minute chat to understand a company’s culture. Women sometimes hesitate here, worried about appearing transactional. But according to InPower Coaching, asking clearly is not only effective—it actually reinforces your network’s ability to support you.
Here’s a mindset reset: rejection isn’t personal. Celebrate it as clarity. Not everyone will have time or the right connection, and that’s okay. Keep moving forward, and remember, giving back builds trust. Support your network with introductions or insights—just not to the point of burnout. Your time and energy matter too.
Finally, follow-up is where the magic happens. Don’t let your connections grow stale. Send a genuine note after meeting, check in periodically, and update your network with your successes and milestones. This isn’t just polite—it keeps your name fresh and your relationships active.
Networking isn’t just for climbing the ladder; it’s about creating a space where you, and the women around you, can flourish. Thanks for tuning in to The Woman’s Career Podcast.
