211: 10+ Conference Networking Strategies with Alisa Cohn (Pivot Crossover)
Category: Business
Duration: 01:01:03

Description:

Attending conferences can be overwhelming — even for the most excited extroverts among us—let alone the introverts who challenge their comfort zone in the registration process alone.

Today, my friend Alisa and I do an in-person debrief of our recent week-long adventure at the TED global conference in Vancouver (my second time attending, her fifth). We cover conversation openers, the power of a genuine compliment, trying (and sometimes failing) to approach people we admire as a peer, handling the inevitable FOMO and big feelings that arise, when to call it quits (what I call “falling off the cliff”), and so much more.

This crossover episode originally aired on the Pivot podcast on June 4, 2023.
