Networking is a challenge for countless executives. Many don’t understand the process or how to use it to best advantage. Few network effectively, optimising their time and more importantly, maintaining and leveraging the connections that they make.

The Networking Masterclasses have been designed to help individuals assess, develop and manage their personal and professional networks. Delegates will work on their personal brand and obtain an in-depth insight into the "dos and don’ts" of networking. The masterclasses will help delegates integrate networking into their daily routine and, helped by the BizPrompt app, take the effort out of networking.

Programme Outline

Designed for up to 15 people, the curriculum has been drawn from the book, “21st Century Networking – How to become a Natural Networker” by David Sole and Belinda Roberts. The programme content, subject to change includes:

  • Understanding the purpose of networking – why network? Personal, organisational and external networks – understanding their purpose and importance.
  • Auditing your current network – understand why people are in your network. Prioritising your contacts and planning your networking time.
  • Building your network to suit your needs – how to connect with the right people. Ongoing maintenance and the roles of giver, taker and connector. Bringing value to your network.
  • You and your brand – making a great first impression. Developing a sound ‘elevator pitch’. Social graces and unwritten rules of networking.
  • How to make the most of networking events – the importance of following up, offering to help and reciprocity.
  • Social media and networking – what are the important channels; managing your ‘online’ persona and digital brand; using the BizPrompt App.

All delegates will receive a copy of “21st Century Networking – How to become a Natural Networker” and will be introduced to the BizPrompt app, which has been designed specifically to complement the networking good practice as outlined in the book and in the masterclasses.

Who should attend?

The masterclasses are aimed at all of those people who find networking intimidating, difficult and awkward; who have to network as part of their roles, specifically with business development in mind and who are eager to continue on a journey of continuous learning.
