Episode 104: The TAO Of A Master Connector – With Steve Spiro

One of the best pieces of advice my Dad ever gave me was “to be successful in life, you’ve got to see, and you’ve got to be seen.” In other words, it’s all about growing your network.

My guest on this episode has dedicated his life to being the “Master Networker.”

Steve Spiro is the author of the new book “The TAO Of A Master Connector.” In our conversation, Steve shares how he went from being the ultimate introvert to growing his network to better than 41 thousand people and counting. And he shares the simple, yet incredibly challenging and difficult way he shifted his mindset to grow his network.

This is a fascinating conversation with a fascinating man, and I hope you take tremendous value from this conversation and use to it start growing your own network.
