When you join Guild and complete your profile the next step is to start making connections and building your network. If you've accepted an invitation from a colleague then you've already got a head start.  However there are many discoverable Guild groups that you can apply to join - we've picked out a few here that should have something to offer most members.

 

✍Why join a Guild group?

  • make new connections and widen your professional network
  • learn from the conversations of peers and experts
  • hear about opportunities (events, jobs, news, communities)

We hope you'll find something that fits with one of your professional interests below - if not, you could consider creating your own community.

 

🍃 Delivering Sustainability in your Business

"Being a good human being is good business" - if you need practical help with your business sustainability efforts, this group is for you. You'll find collaborative peer support, knowledge sharing and expert contributions, with host Catherine Weetman.
