A quick note
If you’ve ever sent a LinkedIn message that was ignored, asked a random person to be your mentor, or wondered how to nail this thing called networking, this piece by Dr Fikayo Akeredolu is for you. It shares how networking really works, and why it often fails. Incredibly relatable but especially valuable and practical.
