We used to do coffee chats a lot during covid as a way to meet new team members and help people make connections when everyone was starting wfh. It made it feel less lonely. If this is in person, treat it like a new client or prospect meeting. Ask them questions and see what motivates them. Learn their pain points and see if you can solve them. A great way to pick up extra projects that can help you learn new skills or even demonstrate areas you can add value.

Get to know your boss. Ask them about their life. Learn what their interests are. Try to see what you have in common so you can stay connected event after the coffee chat.

Thats great! coffee chats should be a more informal opportunity to get to know your colleagues and try to establish a relationship that could present new projects or opportunities. Consider it like a casual interview, maybe even a new friend date. Don't be too work oriented but also keep it professional
