Networking Bootcamp for Career Success

Maggie Ruvoldt

Redesigning Future of Work and Careers

A strong network is the most powerful tool for career and job opportunities.

You've built real skills, do great work, and succeed at the challenges you're given at work. But a strong career can stall when the people who could open doors don't know where you are or what you can do.

If your job searching, you know the feeling. Everyone role draws a crowd and your application isn't getting you the interviews you want. Meanwhile, you've got former colleagues, managers and mentors you haven't talked to in ages and reaching out feels awkward, transactional or like an imposition. So you keep applying online and hoping.

I've got a secret. There is real strength in a network that's a little quiet and can be revived. They don't need a pitch. They need to hear from you.

Imagine knowing who to contact, what to say and how to follow up so it feels natural to you. Rooted in relationship (re)building.

If you're happy in your role, great. Investing in these relationships now is career insurance for when things change.

That's what we'll build in 4 weeks with a system, templates and live practice. No pushy tactics or becoming a LinkedIn influencer.

Take this course if you want to start having conversations that open doors.
