Session: The Networks Women Need For Career Success
Have you played it safe with your career in the old boys' club-but dream about a network of like-minded women who support your ambitions? Are you thinking about taking a courageous leap with your career, business, or life, but lacking the support network to make the transition? The path to success for women is paved by not simply HOW they are networking but rather, how they are BUILDING the network they need for career success.In this motivating talk, J. Kelly Hoey focuses on the unique opportunities women have today to proactively create the focused career network they need, as well as daily strategies for leveraging all the powerful networking tools at their disposal.
Key Takeaways
- How the networks of successful women differ from their male counterparts.
- Why it is important to make deep connections AND get comfortable with relationships that stall at acquaintance.
- Why you shouldn't resist the ebb and flow of connections out of your network (rather you should seek network churn!).
