How To Network As A New Manager

Being a new manager can be lonely. You spend all your time with your team, but you can’t necessarily talk to them about your challenges as a manager. Especially since the Covid pandemic, our networks have all shrunk, as have our opportunities to practice real networking skills. Your first task is to address this, and make networking a conscious action you take for your development and career. Networking without an objective or goal is likely to be unfocused, undisciplined, and won’t get you anywhere. Learn how to set goals for yourself around building a good network, and how to achieve those goals. In this Learning Path, you'll learn from networking expert and founder of The Networking Institute, Kingsley Aikins, and his decades of experience in networking. The practicalities of networking, our tendencies to shy away from meeting new people, how introversion is actually a strength in networking, and how to set a networking goal and routine for yourself as a new manager
