Networking is a must…
But most people hate networking.
You consider it a “necessary evil”.
You feel awkward and don't know where to start.
So you wait until you need something.
No wonder it feels forced and self serving.
It takes practice to make your outreach compelling.
Learn to build a Network that opens doors FOR you
This 23 page guide gives you a step by step framework to:
Identify who you need to know and why
Secure meetings that feel authentic, not awkward
Lead powerful conversations that position you for your next role
Offer real value so you don’t feel like you're just “asking for a favour”
Follow up like a pro and stay top-of-mind for opportunities
This isn’t just theory or a generic “just put yourself out there” networking guide.
This is a strategic, step-by-step framework designed to help you build real relationships inside your company that actually lead to career growth.
It’s the system I developed through my own journey navigating career growth in competitive environments at Fortune 50 companies (like American Express and Salesforce).
