Session 1

Networking Masterclass:
How to Make First Impressions Count

The ability to build a powerful network is one of the most important skills you can have - how you show up in those first 60 seconds is what makes the difference.

In this session, hosted by The Riser App, we’ll explore why first impressions matter and show you how to craft an elevator pitch that feels natural, confident, and memorable. Whether you are at a networking event, or a chance encounter, you should always have your personal pitch ready to go.

You’ll work with the group to create a clear, snappy and powerful intro - and even have the chance to test it out in a supportive space.

Then we’ll put it into practice with our very special Networking 2.0 session. No cringe, just easy conversation (and some practice making your pitch).

  • Walk away with a polished 60-second pitch you can use anywhere
  • Learn how to make first impressions work for you
  • Connect with new people through relaxed, purposeful networking
Riser is the AI career matchmaking app that connects ambitious professionals with the people and opportunities that can help them grow. Think of it as networking, reimagined — smarter, more intentional, and built for the way we actually work today

Session 2

Managing Difficult Relationships at Work

Work can be tough, not just because of the tasks, but because of the people. From tricky team dynamics to challenging managers, knowing how to handle difficult relationships can be the difference maker in your career.

Join us for an honest conversation with an expert panel as we unpack why workplace dynamics can feel so complicated, share practical tools for handling conflict with confidence, and explore how to turn tough relationships into opportunities for growth.

Topics include:

Giving and Receiving Feedback → how to deliver feedback clearly (and constructively) without creating tension, and how to handle tough feedback without defensiveness.

Managing Up → strategies for navigating difficult dynamics with managers, peers, or even stakeholders where you don’t have formal authority.

Handling Conflict Calmly → practical tools to de-escalate situations, keep emotions in check, and move toward resolution.

Building Resilience → how to not let tricky relationships drain your confidence or energy.

This is one of those topics we all face but rarely talk about — and it could change the way you experience your career.
