Abstract

Communication is an essential part of networking and science, and how we communicate is shaped by our own internal landscapes. In this landscape, you will find personal characteristics, such as whether you are more introverted or extraverted, your levels of self-awareness and empathy, and the way you interpret information that you receive from others. You may also encounter fears and social anxieties, which can make interacting with other people challenging or even unpleasant. Knowing this terrain, and being able to navigate it effectively, allows you to improve your communication skills and develop an effective, sustainable networking strategy that suits your personality and your goals.
