BUILDING YOUR IMPACT NETWORK
FREE WEBINAR
12:00-12:30PM FRIDAY 21ST FEBRUARY
One of the first things we tell researchers new to impact is that it cannot be achieved in isolation. As part Impact February 2025, we invite you to join us for this live lunchtime session where we'll share some ideas on what your network could look like to help you kick-start your approach to building it.
ABOUT THE WEBINAR
This live online session will encourage you to consider how you can begin building the network you will need to generate impact from your research. Introducing our unique method for categorising your key groups or individuals, you'll take part in a short reflective exercise from our new Impact Integrators course: Building Your Impact Network to help you kick-start your thinking and approach to networking for impact.
What we'll cover
-
The importance of approaching networking for impact with longevity in mind
