Stop Networking. Start Give/Getting

​Your talent and hard work got you here. But in today’s competitive, and often exclusionary, job market, waiting for the right opportunity isn’t a strategy. Sometimes you have to create your own shot.

​Create Your Own Luck: Become Your Own Referral Engine is a hands-on masterclass built for Caribbean, Black, and first-generation tech leaders who are ready to turn the relationships, credibility, and expertise they’ve already built into new opportunities.

​Instead of traditional networking, this session introduces the “Give/Get” method, a practical framework for building relationships rooted in mutual value and activating your network with intention. Whether you’re positioning yourself for your next leadership role, looking to advance within your company, or exploring consulting and fractional work, you’ll learn how to make your professional network actually work for you.

​We’ll dig into LinkedIn visibility, peer recommendations and endorsements, strategic relationship-building, and AI tools that can help you organize and nurture your network without making your outreach feel automated or transactional.

​This is not another “update your LinkedIn and network more” workshop. Expect practical strategies, hands-on exercises, and a different way of thinking about the professional capital you already have.

​Stop waiting to be referred. Build a network that creates opportunities for you, and opportunities you can create for others.
