Welcome to our first issue of TechPACT Pulse. This newsletter is designed to save you time by distilling impactful insights from thought leaders.

Today we feature How to Build a Broader Network within Your Company by Ko Kuwabara, Jiyin Cao, Soomin Sophie Cho and Paul Ingram on March 6, 2024.

Sticking to familiar circles may feel comfortable, but it can quietly limit your growth and your impact. Building relationships only with those who look and think like you narrows perspective and stifles innovation. Research shows that adopting a growth mindset and believing relationships can be intentionally developed will help foster more dynamic, inclusive, and effective teams.

Try this:

Reflect on who's missing from your current network and make intentional outreach.
Approach networking as a skill: schedule time each month to connect outside your usual circles.
Ask thoughtful questions that go beyond work—this builds trust and opens new perspectives.

Read the full article to learn how small shifts can reshape your influence.
