Networking; The Power Of Sparking Conversations And Nurturing Your Connections

August 09, 2022 • Episode 21

Networking; building connections and nurturing relationships, used to be something I did regularly and with ease.

However, in 2020 the twins were born - pandemic kicked off - my business grew - world became more virtual - I became less flexible ...and a little time-poor!

It has become something I squeeze in, or am reactive to.

Only spending time nurturing those relationships that are in my immediate realm of work / life.

It felt like my network shrunk.

Recently I decided to shake things up, however, and prioritise time for "coffee chats". (Want to book in for one? Link in comments section..)

Reconnecting with people.

Connecting with new people.

It has given me SUCH joy.

In this podcast episode I chat about how sparking conversations I have been able to:

Help solve some burning career and leadership issues
Facilitate other connections and intros
Learnt stuff .. my brain is just bursting!
Challenged my perspective
Rekindled old partnerships; planted the seeds for new ones
Sparked inspiration and ideas in others
Asked for advice around some of my own challenges
Felt supported and part of a community

WOAHHHHH, HOW AWESOME IS THAT

... all from a few coffee chats / week.

As always, LOVE to hear from you.
