Dr Maja Korica {Part 2} - How to Network Virtually & Increase Your Visibility With Senior Leaders

This week we welcome back Dr Maja Korica, Associate Professor of Management and Organisation at Warwick Business School to the podcast.

In a follow up to episode 28 of Leaders With Babies, Dr Korica delves even further into what it takes to get ahead at work in the context of the new socially distanced, virtual environment. Including the best way to establish trust online. 

In this episode, you'll learn how to apply key research on networking to ensure you make a positive impression in a virtual environment, how to influence senior leaders when there is no water cooler conversation and you can't meet face-to-face, the best way you can approach someone senior for a favour when they don't know you and how you can ensure you're fully listened to in a virtual context when you (potentially) have children bursting in on your Zoom calls!

Dr Korica is an anthropologist of the Business Elite, she researches how CEOs, Boards, and Senior Leaders really behave and why analysing in-depth the drivers behind their decision making processes.

She was recognised by Thinkers50 in 2017 as “one of the management thinkers most likely to shape the future of how organisations are managed and led."
