Building a Powerful Network: Adapt, Grow and Stay Relevant
This event marks the launch of the Connexion Career Collective regional series, bringing our mission to life: supporting women and allies in male-dominated industries through connection, visibility, and opportunity. It is designed to bring together ambitious talent, mid-career and senior women across professional services, commercial and technology sectors.
The panel session will focus on building a powerful network and how adapting will enable growth and ensuring relevance at any stage of your career.
Through an honest and practical panel discussion, senior leaders will share how they built their careers and businesses through their network.
The discussion will explore:
• How your network is vital for growth
• The role of relationships in career growth
• Navigating change, transitions with certainty
• Building visibility, influence and opportunity
