Networking isn’t just about business cards and awkward small talk – it’s a vital leadership skill that helps you learn, lead and grow.

In this episode of the Quiet Leadership Revolution podcast, Juliet and Lucy unpack what networking really looks like when it’s done well – and why it matters more than ever for thoughtful, strategic leaders.

They discuss:

• Why most people misunderstand what networking is
• How to reframe networking to be something enjoyable and strategic
• The link between weak ties and fresh ideas
• How to build a strategic network – inside and outside your organisation
• The role of leaders in creating a culture of connection

Whether you love networking or dread it, this episode will help you think differently – and use it as a powerful tool to strengthen your leadership, your team and your career.
