Praise for Sustainable Networking
“There are many bad ideas that circulate about networking. If you see networking as sleazy and transactional, this book will change your perspective. Sustainable Networking for Scientists and Engineers isn’t just about giving you ‘tips and tricks’ to get quick wins when you need it, it’s about developing networking as a core strength in your life and career.”
–David Giltner, TurningScience
