Key insights include:

• Why true networking has nothing to do with business card exchanges
• How to build relationships without the uncomfortable "networking event" approach
• The power of consistency over intensity in relationship building
• Making specific, strategic asks without damaging relationships
• How to nurture connections before you need them
