Send a cold email asking about someone's work

Scroll through your company’s internal directory, and identify the people you’d like to work with, learn from, or simply have a conversation with. Reach out with: “I noticed ____ and would love to learn more about how you navigated from ___ to ___. Would you be free for a short conversation at the following times?”

If your company doesn’t have an internal directory, search for current or former employees using LinkedIn.
