Eric Siu says five to ten minutes of genuine presence and active listening at a networking event can build real relationships. Focus on the other person's story, stay fully engaged, and brief interactions become lasting connections.

And you might be wondering, okay, Eric, what's your point around all this stuff? So my point is this, for you to also get into these types of rooms, to have these dinners, there's always some opportunity to capitalize on. Being able to connect with everyone there, just listening to their story, just kind of listening to them talk, being present with them just goes such a long way because again, even if you have that, those, you know, that touchpoint for 5 minutes or 10 minutes or even for, you know, we're there for a couple hours, it goes a long way because it then builds a real relationship.
