Seeds Of Growth (1111hz) - 1 Hour Handpan Music - Malte Marten

It can sometimes feel like people are just born to network, schmooze and hold court. 

For others, it’s this big, forced, uncomfortable thing that they’d happily avoid forever - especially when some people dominate the room.

It doesn’t have to be that way - nor should it be. 

Because, at its heart, networking is about connection and community. And everyone deserves the opportunity to get involved, get value, and feel part of something.

In our latest episode, Helen Jackson (Principal Technical Consultant) and Laura Phillips (Delivery Director), share their experiences and provide sage advice on how you can rethink and reapproach networking:

- Key ways to make networking more inclusive at events
- How to apply the C-shape (Pac-Man technique)
- Other ways to network outside of events
- Top tips for being a better networker
