Networking for Women: How to
be 2.5x More Successful

We’ve all heard about the power of networks. That job placements, promotions, and opportunities are more likely to come from your network than anywhere else. But most women have not proactively created a network that will surface the opportunities that they want – until now.

Based on research showing that men need one type of network to succeed in business, but women need TWO, Kathryn will break down network dynamics, explain the various roles within one’s network, and walk participants through creating a network that will generate the very opportunities you’re hoping for.

In this session, participants will learn how to:
  • How to create a network that makes it easier (and more enjoyable!) to reach your goals 
  • Why women need a second type of network, what it is, and how to build it 
  • The difference between mentors and sponsors, and how to cultivate more of the latter  

This workshop is suited for all women – from those one year into the workforce up to CEOs.
