Welcome to a new episode of Business Lunch! In this episode, Roland and Ryan dive into the world of networking—something that many dread but is crucial for business success. They discuss the difference between transactional and relational networking, the importance of curiosity, and how to build genuine connections without feeling forced or awkward. You'll hear real-life examples of what works, what doesn’t, and how even self-proclaimed introverts can become great networkers by leading with curiosity and kindness. Highlights: "Good networking isn’t strategic, it’s curious." "The best way to approach networking is from a ‘go first’ mindset." "True networking is about being a good human, not about collecting business cards." "Networking isn’t for sale—don’t cheapen your connections by making them transactional."
