Networks are essential for successful careers no matter the sector or profession you're in & they function best with trust and generosity.

Thanks for registering! We look forward to seeing you there!

This session focuses on that all-important but sometimes scary component of academic life: networking. We have two fantastic experts - Dr Jennifer Polk and Dr Raul Pacheco-Vega - in this session taking on different angles of the networking issue in their sections: The first section is a workshop by Jennifer Polk (Canada) about &quot;Build relationships to build your career&quot;. Section description: &quot;Everyone says networking is key, but what does this mean? Learn how building relationships is the secret to success in any field, and how to do it in a way that draws on your strengths and feels great, not gross.&quot;The second section is a seminar by Raul Pacheco-Vega (Mexico) on &quot;Building online community through promoting others&#x27; work&quot;. Section description: &quot;In a world where social networking sites like Instagram, Twitter and Facebook are pervasive and a fact of life, engaging in social media and using these tools and sites for work is often a concern for scholars and practitioners. In this session, we will be discussing strategies to build community online, particularly promoting the work of others in your academic, social, professional and personal spaces.&quot; The session will be facilitated by Dr Tseen Khoo.Register and join us on Zoom: <a href="https://anu.zoom.us/j/87198681488?pwd=eFh4bHdWcytLbTA5NExqRUs2S1lPZz09" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://anu.zoom.us/j/87198681488?pwd=eFh4bHdWcytLbTA5NExqRUs2S1lPZz09</a> <ul><li><a href="https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?msg=Building+cross-sector+networks+and+online+collegiality&amp;iso=20201124T09&amp;p1=152&amp;ah=2" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Check session time in your location!</a> </li></ul>
