Workshop: "How to network effectively and build global, long-lasting relationships in the music industry" (Géraldine Zanaska)

MC&S Lab presents: “How to network effectively and build global, long-lasting relationships in the music industry” – a workshop in which Géraldine Zanaska, of leading global music business consultancy Compass Music, will provide an introduction and practical tips to easily navigate the world of networking, both face-to-face and online. 

The 90 minutes workshop will take place on Friday 30th July at 11:00 CEST.

Good relationship-building skills are important for every career, and the music industry is no exception. In a sector that is particularly competitive and where knowing the right people can often open many doors, for artists and executives alike, it is important to continuously build and maintain a quality network of your peers.

But are the unwritten rules of networking the same everywhere around the globe? And how to proceed as an introvert? How many events do I need to go to to attain my goal? And how can I connect with people now that most face-to-face opportunities are cancelled?

In this workshop, participants will be given key tips to understand what networking is, how to approach people from different cultures and backgrounds from the music sector, and how to build relationships that last and matter, both face-to-face and online. This session is an interactive one, where participants are expected to take part in a couple of practical exercises. They will also have the opportunity to receive personal feedback on their technique and online networking pages, numbers permitting. 

Registered users will also be able to take advantage of 3 individual mentoring sessions with Géraldine following the workshop.

The event will take place on ZOOM, participation requires signing up.
