In only four simple steps, you can make a business friend of a stranger. Here’s how it’s done:
Enter a room full of people. Look around. Make eye contact with someone you don't know.
Smile. Walk toward her. Extend your hand in greeting.
Now, speak: say your first and last name (not just “Jane”.) Have a brief conversation. Think of someone in the room to introduce her to.
Look for that person. Make eye contact with her.
Smile. Walk to her. Extend your hand in greeting.
Now speak: introduce your new friend.
See, Smile, Shake, Speak - now you're networking!
