Program overview

Network IQ Academy is an acceleration programme for young and for mid-career professionals who are in need of utilising their networks (both strong and weak ties) in new ways either to become more effective when working in a digital environment or more innovative for business growth and career impact or change. 

The programme guides participants through a structured process during which they master a set of Network IQ skills and use these skills immediately as individuals and as a community to build their ecosystem. 

Participants virtually engage with colleagues, peers, and influencers to learn new habits on how to utilise their networks more effectively towards a valid purpose as well as intentionally towards concrete objectives.
