Mimmit Koodaa: Networking for Introverts (and Everyone Else)
Come and create a guide for your own networking needs!
We warmly welcome Spouse Program members to join our first online workshop, organised by Mimmit Koodaa, on Wednesday, 23 September.
What is the workshop about?
This conversational and participatory workshop invites you to look at networking as a natural way of connecting with people, instead of a performance or a skill you have to master.
We will explore why, how and when to build your network, with the aim of making networking feel as natural and accessible as possible.
Ideally, you’ll leave with a fresh perspective, moving from “Networking feels scary or awkward” towards seeing it as an authentic way to connect with others and build meaningful relationships.
What to expect
During the workshop, you’ll take part in:
- Reflection exercises to explore your own approach to networking
- Small-group discussions to exchange experiences and ideas
- Practical activities to help you identify your strengths, gaps and realistic next steps
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a clearer understanding of your own networking needs, as well as practical ideas for taking the next step.
The session is also joined by Vibha Deshpande from Microsoft, who will share their own story and how they think networking benefits individuals.
