The Art of Networking: Professional Friendship or Social Predation?

Networking: the socially acceptable art of turning conversations into opportunities. Join Lucian for a lecture on influence, reputation, strategic charm, elite social circles, and the invisible hierarchy lurking inside every room you walk into. From old-money gatekeeping to weaponized charisma and the psychology of social status, this class explores why success is often less about what you know and more about who remembers your name after the party. Useful for aspiring executives, social climbers, manipulators, politicians, and anyone who’s ever wondered how profoundly fake networking events actually are.
