We've hosted plenty of networking events at WorkIQ over the past two years. And if there's one thing we've learned, it's that the best conversations rarely start with a sales pitch.
They usually start with curiosity.
At your next event, instead of asking "What do you do?", try to ask: "What are you working on right now?"
It's a simple question, but one that tends to reveal a lot more about a person than their job title ever could.
You might hear about a startup idea. A challenge they're trying to solve. A new client they've just landed. A project they're passionate about. And that's usually where the interesting conversations begin.
