With a record-breaking number of people either out of work or transitioning to remote work, connections―particularly diverse and inclusive connections―are more important than ever. It’s all about who you know, who knows you, and what they know about you. In this timely webinar, the author of The Connector’s Advantage, Michelle Tillis Lederman, explains the types of relationships you need to get faster results, especially when job hunting, reentering the workforce, or reimagining your current role in the wake of the pandemic. You will learn the correlation between relationships, hiring, and promotion, the key relationship types that impact success, and what it takes to have the mindset of a Connector.
