Your Networking Circle: Mentors

A useful exercise that everyone should carry out on an annual basis is an analysis of their network, by identifying the circle of contacts around them. To do this we use our Networking Circle worksheet (you can download your copy for free by signing up to our mailing list).

• Step 1: Download and print the NC worksheet
• Step 2: Write your name in the centre circle.
• Step 3: Write the names of people in the next circles working outwards grouping them in categories.

If you haven’t already review your networking circle and note your mentors. Over the years you are likely to have a lot of mentors for different reasons, and it is great to keep them active in your network – after all even if you don’t need them right now, who knows when they may be useful once again.
