Networking can be challenging—here's what leaders never do in networking intros (and you shouldn't either):
Networking can be challenging. You may not know what to say to strangers, including how to introduce yourself. To others, this can come across as being timid or that you are unsure of yourself. Do you want to demonstrate your confidence and leadership and introduce yourself like a boss? Do not do these three things when networking:Leaders introduce themselves, not their names. They simply say their names without any preface.
When you introduce yourself, try not to say, “Hi. My name is Jessica.” Walk up to the person and say “Jessica Smith” while making eye contact and offering a nice, firm handshake. It demonstrates your confidence and assertiveness. Here, less is more impactful.Leaders know that others are more important than themselves. When you introduce yourself to the other person, try to refrain from saying too much about you at first. Ask about them, their career, and their professional goals.
Listening provides you the opportunity to understand and learn the person’s interests, priorities and challenges.

All the while they are talking about themselves, they remain interested in learning about you. Think of a networking introduction like a presentation.

But if your title creates curiosity, you have won the audience over.
