Ace Up Your Sleeve

​Professional networking is your ace up you sleeve when navigating your career.
 
To move past your current role, it is important to network with other professionals.

Through networking, you can:
 

• Learn new practices
• Identify trends
• Analyze vendors
• Benchmark initiatives
• Understand possible career paths
• Learn about other company cultures
• Discover new job openings

 
Even just a short time away from your day to day job can build your motivation and help you think about your work in new ways.
 
If you already are aware of professional networking opportunities, check the calendar for the next meetings.
 
If you don't know of professional networking opportunities in your area, ask colleagues. You can also review the LinkedIn profiles of industry colleagues to see which groups they belong to.
