The vast majority of executives will land their next role through one channel: networking.
At the senior level, it’s not job boards or mass applications that move careers forward—it’s relationships. The real challenge isn’t understanding that networking matters, but rather building, maintaining, and activating a network in a consistent and intentional way.
In this video excerpt, Stacie Haller and Harriette Lowenthal break down what effective executive networking actually looks like in practice. Drawing from a live Q&A with ExecuNet Premium members, they explore how executives can use LinkedIn more strategically, build reciprocal relationships instead of one-sided outreach, and leverage networking tools without losing the human element.
They also address a common gap many leaders face: having a network, but not actively maintaining it in a way that keeps relationships warm and meaningful over time.
If your networking feels inconsistent, awkward, or underperforming, this conversation reframes what it should look like at the executive level—and how to make it work for you, not against you.
Watch the video to learn how to strengthen your network, activate it more effectively, and turn relationships into real career momentum.
