You’ve heard that networking is key, but let’s be real—most people suck at it. Not Claude Grunitzky, though. This guy is a networking legend. He built a media empire, launched an advertising agency, and now runs a venture capital firm that backs diverse founders—all thanks to his ability to connect with the right people.

Grunitzky, who grew up between extreme wealth and poverty, learned that the more layers you embrace—your culture, interests, skills—the easier it is to find common ground with anyone. He calls it “developing social capital,” and research proves that the more identities you own, the bigger your opportunities.

This article breaks down how understanding your identity can supercharge your career and help you build a network that actually opens doors.
