COACH BY CWM - CHAPTER 001 - How To Network Like A Professional Quarterback

Networking isn’t about collecting contacts. It’s about orchestrating connections — the same way a professional quarterback reads the field, adapts in real-time, and delivers the perfect pass.

In this opening chapter, Cindy breaks down the art of strategic networking through the lens of elite-level athletic thinking. You’ll learn how to:

• Read the “field” in any room or online space
• Identify the right players and decision-makers
• Build genuine, long-term relationships instead of surface connections
• Position yourself as valuable (not desperate)
• Follow up with intent, confidence, and clarity

This is not generic networking advice. This is a playbook for high performers, career-builders, founders, and future leaders who want to move with precision, confidence, and purpose.

If you’ve ever felt invisible in a room, unsure who to approach, or tired of shallow LinkedIn connections — this chapter rewires your mindset completely.

You don’t chase the ball.
You command the game.

Start here. Build your network like a pro.
