It is often said that travel, tourism and hospitality are all about people. If we can build better relationships, be more effective with our networking and yet remain authentic as women and as leaders, we have much better chances to stay in business, have fulfilling jobs and personal lives.
So much of this is about trust. But how do you build it and are there tools that one can learn and apply? Join this session to learn about simple techniques and tips that you can immediately implement whilst doing business in the sector, particularly during travel trade fair season!
Prepare for a lively and interactive session in a supportive environment.
BENEFITS

Organiser Women in Travel CIC
Organiser of HOW TO NETWORK EFFECTIVELY AND DEVELOP ALL AROUND BETTER RELATIONSHIPS
Women in Travel cic is a social enterprise dedicated to economically empowering women using travel tourism and hospitality as a force for good.
We work with a wide range of women: from those taking their first steps in industry; to those underrepresented; to marginalised and very vulnerable. We believe that all women have an enormous amount of potential to offer to the travel tourism and hospitality industry - as employees and entrepreneurs - which in turn can benefit from their fresh and diverse talent.
Women in Travel selects, trains and places into jobs vulnerable and marginalised women who are often referred to our programmes by charity partners dealing with refugees, domestic abuse; modern slavery and similar circumstances. Women who have been on our programmes also refer their friends. We provide mentoring, employability skills, interview skills and often a supportive hand too, through our networking groups, restoring much needed self-worth and self-confidence.
Women in Travel runs workshops and topical events on several national and international platforms, including World Travel Market in London, Dubai, Sao Paulo and Cape Town. In January 2020 Women in Travel successfully launched the inaugural International Women in Travel and Tourism Forum.
Bame Women in Travel is the most recent inititive dedicated to increase the visibility and representation in industry of women from Bame communities. Growing quickly in the space of under 2 years it has now established its own calendar of unmissable events and activities.
