In-person meetings, conferences, and networking events might be on hold, but relationships certainly are not. Studies show that one of the single most significant limiting factors for women in business is the lack of an active professional network. Women network differently than men, and these differences can lead them to have less extensive networks to support and promote them as leaders. Knowing how to network is not a nice-to-have skill, it's a must for accelerated and long term career and business growth, especially during times of uncertainty and chaos. And we're not just talking about climbing some ladder--we're talking about accessing the opportunities, collaborations, and clients you want while working on the issues you care about.
In this session, we will learn how to create our “power network” and become thought leaders from business development expert and networking coach Julie Brown. She will explain how to create next-level professional connections, even from your virtual office.
Come network with us! Although the talk will focus on networking for women, WIA welcomes and encourages the participation of all gender identities at this event.
