Networking to Earn Your Next Role
In a competitive and rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, career progression is shaped by more than experience and performance alone. The relationships we build across organizations, functions, and industries can increase visibility, create advocacy, and open doors to opportunities that may never emerge through a traditional application process.
Join HBA Seattle for a candid and practical conversation with Carlos Villarreal and Bineeta Boney, moderated by Stephanie Malveira, on how to network intentionally and build relationships that can help position you for your next role. Drawing on their experiences across life sciences, leadership, career transitions, and HBA, the panel will explore how to build authentic connections before you need them, expand your network beyond your immediate circle, communicate your professional value, and cultivate relationships that can evolve into advocacy, sponsorship, and opportunity.
Whether you are actively considering your next move or investing in your longer-term career trajectory, this session will provide actionable approaches for building a network with purpose—and leveraging it effectively when the right opportunity emerges.
Learning Objectives
- Build authentic professional relationships that support career growth.
- Communicate your value and career goals effectively within your network.
