Networking; The Power Of Sparking Conversations And Nurturing Your Connections
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 issuesFacilitate other connections and introsLearnt stuff .. my brain is just bursting!Challenged my perspectiveRekindled old partnerships; planted the seeds for new onesSparked inspiration and ideas in othersAsked for advice around some of my own challengesFelt supported and part of a communityWOAHHHHH, HOW AWESOME IS THAT... all from a few coffee chats / week.As always, LOVE to hear from you.Does this resonate?JennDownload my “Nail your first impression” workbook, which will help you create a compelling “elevator” introduction to get you off on the right foot and set the tone for your first 90 days (and beyond…). https://jennfenwick.com/nail-your-first-impressionWhere to find Jenn:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennfenwick/ Send me a message on LinkedIn to find out more about my PRIVATE COACHING
