Networking
Practice networking conversations.
Practice introducing yourself, small talk that isn’t painful and following up — before the event, not during it.
- No pressure. Start with one conversation.
Situation selected: Meet someone new
Closed question — easy to answer with one word and stop.
Lead with something real, leave them an easy way in.
Example — scores are indicative, not a scientific measurement.
Professional situations to rehearse:
A lunch break with a coworker.
A stranger at a book café.
Joining four people mid-topic.
The person you sit near every week.
How SHAZA works
Pick a real moment — a first message, meeting someone new, a hard talk.
Chat with an AI that reacts like a real person, not a script.
See what worked, what didn’t, and a stronger way to say it.
Run it back until it feels natural — in private, on your time.
Questions
