Why, I hear you say? ✅ Expand Your Network: Networking events provide an excellent opportunity to meet new people and expand your professional network. ✅ Stay Informed About Trends: When you’re in a room with Industry leaders, conversations naturally turn to recent developments. Networking events are a great chance to learn about industry trends, innovations, and areas of focus. Staying informed helps you adapt and grow in your career. ✅ Connect with Key Influencers: Networking events create an environment where you can approach key influencers and leaders in your field. Seize the Day! Take the opportunity to connect with those who can make a difference in your career. ✅ Boost Motivation: Being in a room with veteran friendly organisations can be incredibly motivating. You’ll leave with fresh ideas, inspirations, and a renewed sense of purpose. Even if your primary goal isn’t relationship-building, attending networking events can still boost your motivation. ✅ Socialise and Break Routine: Networking events offer a change of scenery, allowing you to socialise while also benefiting your career. It’s a win-win situation—both professionally and socially. Plus, our office has one of the most amazing panoramic views of Newcastle. ✅ Discover Job Opportunities: Many job openings are never advertised publicly.

Remember, networking is about building meaningful connections that can positively impact your career. Register today to attend Soldier On's Pathways networking event and see how it can enhance your professional journey! 😊 #strongertogether #pledgepartners #veteranemployment #seizetheday #networking

An incredible gathering of minds at yesterday's experimental networking tea! What was most powerful was noodling on creativity through the lens of lived experiences. Takeaways from our session: 1. We all have the ability to be creative and it starts with creating the physical space and time for it to unfold gently 2. Repetition and discipline can give us the baseline to allow ourselves to let go of outcomes and expectations 3. A strong sense of direction and purpose naturally leads to focus 4. Creative problem-solving is not creativity, just as iteration is not innovation If you want to expand your network in a meaningful and mindful way, reach out to me to learn about future events.

I almost gave up on LinkedIn. (I've not posted for 2 months.) Here's why: • Fed up with the algorithm never showing me any love. • I went on a 12-week vipassana retreat to balance my life. • I finally took the time to visit the 7 wonders of the world. hmm... nope! None of these things happened 😅 Yes, I wish to do some of it, but that is not why I stopped! I stopped posting on LI because of a new opportunity. We were faced with Governmental tenders this summer which demanded my full attention. We finally submitted our offers. If successful, we can: 1. Help more foreign companies enter the German market 2. Assist more German companies grow their exports 3. Build hundreds of international partnerships So please, keep your fingers crossed and wish us luck! Now, that this task is completed, I will start posting again.  PS: How did you spend your summer?

An exciting new event for young professionals. 🪓🍕 At the very start of my work life, events, forums, or meetings in general were daunting. The idea of small talk with strangers wasn't my idea of fun; however, events such as this prove that networking shouldn't be a daunting 'task' but an opportunity to connect with those in a similar position to you.   Plus, what better way to 'break the ice' than the past time of throwing axes?   If you want to build your professional network, do it in a fun, comfortable, and informal situation, such as the Young Professionals Forum. Book your place 👉 https://lnkd.in/eU55TEVv

It’s a must.

Should I plan a Presentation for Continuing Education? What topic is on your mind?
