Ask the general public and they’ll probably confirm that networking sucks. It’s awkward striking up a conversation with a room full of strangers and even if you can worm your way into a conversation, it feels a bit smarmy talking to someone in order to “get” something in return. Going to a networking event without a wingman? May as well go home, get in your pajamas, order a pizza and convince yourself that being a hermit isn’t so bad.
Almost all of us have felt that way at some time or another.
