009: Don’t be a jerk when networking for business.

After years of networking from the C-Suite, you’re bound to meet a jerk (or a few) – or maybe you’ve even done this to someone else.

What do you do when you have good, authentic intentions for networking and the person you’re meeting with has a more aggressive approach? This episode of FU-CHAAA Fridays comes from a friend’s story. After a few sentences, the woman she was networking with said, “Tell me how you’re going to put money in my pocket or you’re wasting my time?”

While that may be the goal, and I agree with the sentiment, there are more tactful options to communicate this message from the C-Suite.
