Virtual learning skills to build Powerful People Networks

Pre-workshop Learning

The pre-workshop learning is designed to give participants an introduction to the area of workplace networks ahead of the core workshop webinars.

This online learning component will consist of introductory lessons and selected readings including chapters from ‘The Hidden Power of Social Networks: Understanding How Work Really Gets Done in Organizations’ by Rob Cross, a leading expert in the field. You will first complete a survey on your background and experience with ONA before engaging in some reading materials introducing ONA.

The learning will be self-directed, but supported by Mentis Consultants.
