Welcome to you GOLD Networking Toolkit

This isn’t just another guide—it’s a practical resource to help you build real relationships that lead to opportunity.

For Individuals:

You’ll get tools and prompts that help you:

• Clarify what you want from your network—so you stop wasting time in the wrong rooms

• Feel more confident introducing yourself and following up after events or online meetings

• Show up with consistency, rather than sporadic bursts of networking that go nowhere

• Strengthen professional relationships in a way that fits your personality—not someone else’s script

• Develop a sustainable rhythm for connecting that works around your existing commitments

You don’t need to be extroverted or ‘good at networking’—you just need a way to do it that feels more intentional and less performative.

For Organisations:

Stronger networks create stronger teams.

Your people will:

• Build stakeholder confidence and visibility

• Learn how to represent your brand well in and outside the business

• Improve cross-team collaboration through internal relationship-building

• Strengthen client engagement and partner relationships over time

• Turn networking from a passive skill into an active habit

Use the toolkit to support:

• New joiners and returners

• Event preparation and debriefs

• Personal development programmes

• Team offsites or lunch-and-learns
