I have come across these strategies on how to fight your fears of networking when attending an event or conference. I wanted to share with you.

I think thiese are good strategies which I could apply when I attend the upcoming work conference this 22nd February.

Mind tools listed the following strategies to fight your fears of networking:

1. Be selective about the events that you attend.
2. Research other attendees' backgrounds to get useful information.
3. Set realistic, meaningful goals.
4. Think about what you'll say, and listen to the responses.
5. Arrive early so that you can assess your surroundings.
6. Bring a colleague or friend for support.
7. Mind your body language, and try to keep an open posture.
8. Go easy on yourself.
9. Take time out during the event to "recharge your batteries."
10. Know when to move on from a conversation.
