Ep 58 - The Surprising Power of People You Barely Know in Success

What if the most overlooked part of your network might be the most powerful? In this episode, Cindi Baldi and Geoff Tumlin explore the surprising influence of weak ties, that is, people you barely know.

Cindi and Geoff explain why these weak connections are so powerful and how to best use them. They share practical strategies for reconnecting with your network, for sparking new conversations, and for creating momentum in your career and community.
