Kent Innovation & Enterprise in collaboration with EIRA* are hosting this unique training event delivered by independent leadership consultant, Jenny Wade. Jenny is offering a limited number of one to one networking coaching calls online for academics, with an online pre-reading introduction webinar at 10.30am Wednesday 6th May on Zoom (this will also be recorded for those unable to make the webinar live).
The webinar will include:
- Innovation and enterprise for academics
- What is networking & a networking model
- Engaging potential collaborators
The coaching calls will focus on networking skills but can be tailored to suit your individual needs and interests in networking. Coaching calls appointments are available from Monday 11th May morning, and Friday 15th May afternoon, and the subsequent Mondays and Fridays through May and June. However, if these are not suitable, we can find an alternative time to suit you. The appointments are limited and will be provided on a first-come, first-serve basis, so please email to book your place, by emailing eirakent@kent.ac.uk. You can still access the webinar as a stand-alone training.
