POWER BASE
Grow your influence and accelerate your career by building key relationships
Great at what you do, and yet your career or your business doesn't grow as much as it should?
Considering where you want to be in six months, 3 years, 5 years from now, your current network is not really on par with your aspirations?
Relationships are the key currency in one's career, and yet networking is often something we neglect because we tend to resent it or are unsure how to go about it.
Power Base is there to help you
master strategic networking
and get to the next stage in your career - FASTER
You can change the way you approach networking so as to quickly create the power base you need in order to open doors - even if you hate networking!
Since we mostly hear about tactics that feel inauthentic or are overwhelmed by social media gimmicks, no wonder why we hesitate to put effort into it. Moreover, we're often taught to nurture our relationships, but what if your existing network is not in line with your vision for your career or your business?
POWER BASE IS DIFFERENT: It will help you quickly acquire the few critical skills to initiate and develop genuine connections with others and it will give you the structure to expand your network efficiently.
Here is what some past participants got from joining :
"First successes in networking come up already"
"I didn’t know how to start with networking and what was worth the time. Through this training, I have found new networking approaches, and I know how to start. What worked particularly well for me was the way O’ona led the training: it made the exercises and the feedback from the small group very valuable. I enjoyed it a lot and I must admit, first successes in networking come up already. I sent an email to an interesting person, asking some questions, I received an out of office reply and even though the person was on leave I received a really kind and friendly email from him, already two hours later. I am very happy that it works and I will now focus on that."
- Associate Legal Officer, United Nations Mechanism for International Criminal Tribunals
"Now I'm really excited about my new role"
"When it came to maintaining my network and getting back in touch, I was my main obstacle: I was scared to reach out, but you helped me a lot, you pushed me to do that. People can be very responsive and nice, much more than we think. It can be disappointing sometimes but don’t give up! Overall, for me it was a process of personal growth: learning to believe in myself, putting myself out there and saying what I want. Now I’m really excited about my new role!”
- Policy Analyst, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development
"I now have a follow up with the CEO"
"After our session, I went back to the company, and explored the situation together with them. In the end, this was valuable. I now have a follow up with the CEO."
- Founder of a Marketing Consulting Firm
"It helped me to find the kind of job I wanted in a great organization within a relatively short time"
"The networking conversations enabled me to refine my positioning and prepared me for the real interviews too. Finding a job is much easier in my country but here it was important to know how to network. It helped me to find the kind of job I wanted in a great organization within a relatively short time."
- Demand Planner, Starbucks
"I was wondering how to get to speak with the hiring managers, now I understand how to go about it"
“Before the training, I was wondering how to get to speak with the hiring managers aside of the standard hiring process. Now I understand how to go about it.”
- Trial Attorney, International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia
"The step by step plan makes it easy to implement"
“Before taking the course, I saw networking negatively, which is why I wasn’t doing it enough, and that’s partly why I haven’t been successful in job hunting. Now I see networking more positively and the advantages are clear. The course has a better format than most, it is clear and concise, and it has helped me to plan for how I’ll personally implement it.”
- Procurement Officer, International Atomic Energy Agency
"I have just finished my first assignment"
“I have just finished my first assignment with Clark's, my first direct corporate client, 100% related to your coaching.”
- Founder of a language institute

By the end of this course, you'll know:

> What information to look for to validate your ideas, uncover actual work opportunities, build a strong positioning, and turn a cold or mild contact into a supporter.

Side note: Do you already attend networking events, and this isn't giving you the results you want? Then it may be time to shift gears to effectively build the power base you want, with a more strategic and human approach.

"The goals were to secure plan A job-wise and to devise a strategy for plan B. Since then, I succeeded with plan A."
“After meeting O’ona at her presentation on career transitions at the Tribunal, I contacted her to evaluate my options and to plan for my networking initiatives. It quickly enabled me to clarify my priorities, to overcome my apprehensions, and more specifically to frame my message compellingly. The goals were to secure plan A job-wise and to devise a strategy for plan B. Since then, I succeeded with plan A.”
- Legal Advisor, Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights
