Wisepreneurs Podcast: Independent Professionals Building Expertise Karen Wickre Taking the Work out of Networking: Connecting Beyond Career Goals
Karen Wickre worked at Google and Twitter before writing Taking the Work out of Networking, her guide to building genuine connections without transactional pressure.
Karen explains why networking doesn't have to feel like work. Drawing from her Silicon Valley career and her current life as a self-employed corporate editor and writer in her 70s, she shares practical approaches to maintaining loose-touch relationships that serve personal and professional needs alike.
Her framework treats networking as connecting for a whole range of human needs, not just career advancement.
Wisepreneurs explores how independent professionals turn accumulated expertise into sustainable practice."
