Macc: Tap Into the Power of Networking to Grow Your VCSE

“Networking is not about just connecting people. It’s about connecting people with people, people with ideas, and people with opportunities.” – Michele Jennae 

From awareness-raising to knowledge-sharing, exploring collaboration to sourcing expert advice or resources, developing your skills in networking can be invaluable to help you and your VCSE grow. 

Whether completely new to the practice, or something you’ve periodically undertaken, this interactive lunchtime session from Macc will explore how networking can be fitted into even the most busy of schedules, providing encouragement to explore networks you are already part of, and to seek out new ones.  

Among other topics the session will cover: 

• What is networking – and what is it not 

• Benefits offered to you and your VCSE 

• How to overcome perceived barriers  

• Preparing for events 

• How to start, grow and maintain your network  

• Finding business networking events to attend 

There will be plenty of opportunities to discuss experiences and share top tips in this informal space.
