This week's episode is all about something that many people fear - networking. Bec and Annie reveal how they both feel about networking, and you’ll hear them discuss:

• Is networking essential to success?
• How to plan for networking
• Linkedin…
• Small talk - and whether that’s good networking
• The importance of asking good and open questions
• Active listening as part of networking

Networking and maintaining your professional relationships does not always have to be going to big events - you can tailor it to your own specific relationships. In some cases, it can even be fun activities like cold water swimming. You can make it work for you, so it’s not so daunting.

Fun little extras you’ll get in this week's episode include our tops on how to use Linkedin, as well as learn what gives Annie the ‘professional ick’.
