“Claire and I worked together on several client projects as well as collaboration on design. Claire is a really patient, empathetic and calm coach. She intrinsically reads a room and knows how to get the best out of a group. She’s very knowledgeable in some really important frameworks but more importantly knows how to bring them to life ”

What are the most effective ways to make a lasting impression at a networking event?
To build on this I would say that reflective listening works well to engage and build trust; reflect back what you’ve heard (to help you probe/explore further) by using open questions to build on what you’ve understood (e.g. That’s intriguing. How did you do that?) with genuine interest (inflecting your tone of voice upwards at the end and using open body language will help you here) to find out more. Also, a smile can go a long way; this will encourage people to open up even more to you and feel encouraged (rather than discouraged) to open up to you/approach you.
