Supported by Leeds College of Building and our event sponsors, this session challenges traditional approaches to networking and focuses on helping attendees build meaningful professional connections with confidence.

The "Master Your Networking Game" CPD event is centred around developing your personal brand, increasing self-confidence, and learning practical networking techniques that can support long-term career success. Through interactive discussions and real-world insights, attendees will discover how to make lasting impressions and unlock new opportunities.

Paul Corke from 10Eighty will be delivering the sessions. Paul is a dynamic speaker who inspires audiences with powerful insights on mindset, leadership, and personal transformation.
